stomach virus

I missed last Saturday's class due to stomach virus. I just stayed home the whole day. I tried doing warmup exercises in the morning but my whole body was sore and aching. My stomach area was extra sore. I tried to be active the whole day but when I move I feel a lot of pain. It was better not to move at all. I also had no appetite. I felt like vomiting the whole day. It felt like my stomach stopped working. Normally, my stomach would growl once in a while, but Saturday it hardly made a sound, and was slowly ballooning. Drinking hot black tea helped a lot. By night time, I started feeling very chilly, and my fingers and toes were tingly. My whole body just wanted to curl up and sleep. And that's what I exactly did.

Sunday morning, my wife woke me up and asked me if I still wanted to go see the Dalai Lama at Rutgers, New Brunswick. I felt better, but I was not fully recovered, so I declined and stayed in bed. So she went with her friend, instead. But the most amazing thing was that almost all of the symptoms of the stomach virus were gone, like a passing storm. Sleep is a very powerful natural medicine.
