I continue to lost my strength and on the 23rd of March, I collapsed in the kitchen while I was preparing dinner.... It was around six in the evening when I got up from bed. I feel much better when I am lying down than standing or sitting around so I've been spending my time resting on the bed. I walked slowly but no matter how careful I was, I can still feel that I am in no condition to move about. Still I forced myself and went to the kitchen. A thought of being hungry crossed my mind yet, I wasn't really feeling hungry at that time. But I wanted to have Yakisoba. I had the ingredients and took the knife out but I made sure to place it where it won't fall in any case but just then, I felt a strong surge of vertigo and I tried to control it by tilting my head. However, I failed and everything went black.
When I woke up, I found myself slumped on the kitchen floor as if I have fallen off asleep. "Oh no! this is not good." I immediately thought to myself, "I fainted!" I quickly looked on my hands, arms, body and legs, even felt my neck,face and head for anything that could have been knocked or hurt. But I didn't feel any pain. I checked if there are any bruises and blood. NONE. I am fine. But the fact I know I fainted isn't okay anymore. I checked the floor for anything that may have fallen and scattered because I do not want any food or liquid spilled. Gees, I was even concerned abt.that. But nothing! So, I got up and went to my room but I felt groggy and weak. Panic wants to grip me. I don't even have any idea how long I passed out. I told myself I need to be calm, think quickly and move, I must get help! I managed to get back to my room and grabbed my fone. I asked for help online from a cousin of my colleague at work. Thankful GLOBE telecom have free limited data which enabled me to remain in touch through messenger despite I don't have load.The ambulance and my brother Ed were informed of what happened to me and are on their way.
I still have to move a bit more and prepare some things I must bring and while I was moving about, that's when I saw in the kitchen that the food I was preparing were scattered on the floor including the bowl, chopping board and---the KNIFE!
Good thing it fell off far from where I slumped down that's why I wasn't hurt or bleeding. I have to thank God and Jesus for this. For protecting and saving me!
