My Sick Twin

After a month and a half of being ill, after two dozen different types of medicine, after injections of penicillin and eucalyptus oil, after unknown amounts of snotty tissue, after pains in my head and pains in my chest, after losing faith and thinking that I would never get healthy again, I have finally kicked whatever illnesses have been attacking me and am solidly on my way to being healthy again.

On January 4th, I woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. As I stood up from bed I felt my twin, my sick self, fall away from my body. I knew at that point that I might still be sick, I might still have to take medicine, but that was the turning point, it is all uphill from now on.
