I was feverish since Thursday this week. But it was not until this morning when I noticed some rashes on my chest. My initial reaction was to think what did I had last night. An allergy, perhaps? When I showed my rashes to my parents, I told them that it may had been caused by mosquito bites. “What mosquito?”, my dad told me (as we used to have a dealership of aluminum and screens in Parañaque, and our house is well protected by these stuff against mosquitoes).

I was on my way to the church, that’s around  8am when I decided to “rush myself” to the hospital. I was at the San Juan De Dios Emergency Room minutes later. So I texted my dad and told him that I am there, brought to the Isolation Room from the ER. Hehehe .. My dad arrived, and asked the hospital staff to admit me (so that I may rest) for a day or two, but they will not let me stay there as I got measles. What?! I was sent home, and was given some medications and was advised to take a bed rest for the next 2 days.

It’s been years ago since I stayed at home on a Sunday. Usually, after hearing (and playing) at the 9.30am mass, Rose and I will go malling til around 7pm or 8pm. Now, I here, in front of the PC while waiting for TrueFaith to appear in both ASAP and SOP.
