Miracle

Miracle drug.   

Just one capsule, and four hours sleep lessens the rattling in my chest and releases a burst of energy.  I can even think now!
Such a slippery slope this energy depletion hosting viruses that invite bacterial infection, insidiously.
I think I found my inner swan father today, enough already!

I'm so grateful to have been born just after the NHS was created and antibiotics invented.  I've never known a world without either.  Grateful too to have had the pneumococcal vaccine.  I watched my dad die of pneumonia, the early signs were similar.  Blessed be.
