Parasites and other lovely things
So, some of you know and some of you don't but I have been dealing with a particularly persistent parasite over the last 12 weeks which has made me extra tired, grumpy, sick and generally a pain in the ass (well, moreso than usual).
At the moment, all seems to be well and the parasite is not causing me too many problems although it is making me rather fat so I now need larger clothes to compensate for the rapid weight gain. It is also affecting my ability to balance properly and I am often dizzy and out of breath.
Having had a parasite like this before I can also confirm that they tend to live a long time and bleed you dry both financially and psychologically but on the whole people tend to tolerate their presence and encourage growth with regular feeding, the renewal of size-appropriate clothing and even educating them.
Having been to the hospital for tests to examine this parasite in more detail I can now confirm officially that it shall be remaining until the beginning of September whereupon it shall be removed from the body, given an appropriate name and dressed in tiny clothes.
We do have a picture but no scanner so if and when we are able to we will post it so you too can see what looks like an alien in black and white. I think I know which end the head is...but I can't be sure...
Anywho, that is all for now. Carry on.
