I have some terrible news! Don't worry nobody died, it's just that my dad is really sick with the flu and I must say he is a wreck. My mother says that if he doesn't get treatment soon he could develop lung complications such as acute bronchitis. Acute bronchitis occurs when your windpipes, the organs that help carry oxygen to your lungs, swells up. The symptoms include a persistent dry cough, discomfort in the chest, fatigue, shortness of breath, and a headache. Another lung complication is pneumonia. Pneumonia symptoms include fever, vomiting, weakness, chest pains, coughing, chills, and shortness of breath.
I don't even want to continue. It gets even worse. Everyone in our hiding spot stopped today at twelve and prayed silently for him. We continued throughout the day and stopped to eat only once. Thankfully my mother and my aunt were both nurses before the crisis. They gave my father some herbs in the form of tea and slowly but surely is becoming better. We continue to pray everyday for him and at this rate he will definitely be alright.
Yours truly,
Shannon
