Sleep deprivation, medicine claims that it can cause hand tremors and headaches, there are various other linked problems too. I don't know what should be my answer if someone would ask, 'how do you start your day?' I would ask myself, when did I really?
Got up at 5 in the morning, went to bed at 4 and for 60 minutes my body was in a state of paralyses but I can't say the same about my mind. First thing was a nice cold shower and then something to eat.
Class at 10, today I had to see this patient I'm treating since 1 day only, so far so good. My very first patient, it's my second day with him. Hemiplegia, this is what I'm treating. He is really a calm guy, left side doesn't work. He can't remember much. He can't walk without any help; if he tries, he usually takes a straight head first knock on the ground. The irony of fun takes a swing when you think about a single accident and a single head on collision that can do this much damage to the body. While the brain acts perfectly fine, the whole body doesn't respond to its commands anymore and thus it causes one weird ass syndrome. It took about 2 hours with him. We didn't talk much; my head was somewhere else most of the time. They say he'll get better but I don't know how much of what they say is true. It's been 2 years now, I know he can walk just like he was walking when I saw him for the first time and that was 2 years ago.
Next thing was lunch at 1 with same mess food that is always messed up no matter how good they cook. Eating it was like doing nothing, I would rather cut my stomach and drag the food inside and patch it up again.
Then a second shower to keep me going thru the noon sun. Third when I started feeling loose, then dinner, then friends and their comedy. Then some new age game till 2 in the morning and then ……………………HISTORY
A new day is never like the one already gone but what we learn from a day already gone is to remember that one moment that can be remembered forever. We learn a little something every new day, so be it a new word or a change.
Today, I learned that there is something that is screaming for a change.
6:30 AM and I need another cold ass shower to keep me going.
