My guardian angel….
Paolo Coelho here speaks of guardian angels and how much he believes in them. He’s asked that we write in the forum about our own experience with guardian angels. I’d like to post my very recent experience here instead. As you have seen, I was confined in the hospital for dengue fever… but what I haven’t told you is how I found out that I had dengue.
Thursday evening (June 18) - I got very very high fever and was getting chills all throughout the night. To the point that my husband wasn’t able to sleep a wink because he was watching over me. At 6:30am Friday morning, we went to the hospital where I got a series of tests. I was dismissed with a bacterial infection, was given a prescription for antibiotics and paracetamol and was sent home.
Monday morning (June 22) – My fever was gone. But I still had difficulty keeping my food down. The only thing I could do was keep in drinking water just so I wouldn’t feel so hungry. My stomach was growling like crazy and REALLY wanted to eat something.
Tuesday morning (June 23) – I told my husband to take me to the hospital because I couldn’t take it anymore. I wanted to eat already. I don’t care anymore. I’ll have myself admitted to the hospital if I have to just so I can eat. That’s when they found out that my platelet count was already 14,000. Normal is at least 50,000. They ordered a platelet transfusion right away.
If I waited any longer…
Thank God for my guardian angel. He/She was truly watching over me.
