Health is wealth

We’ve been hit by the dreaded “Dengue” fever. As of this writing, three of the people in our compound (Four households in one property) have been diagnosed with the disease, two of them from my family.

The disease can mimic flu like symptoms so we thought my brother was only sick with influenza, if he had not gone to the doctor in time, his platelet count would’ve plunged to a dangerously low level without even knowing it, and then death occurs.

It’s best to go to the doctor and get checked. Don’t play the doctor yourself. Nothing beats early detection of an illness and of course, the best medication is prevention.

Health is wealth nowadays so eat healthily, exercise, keep a positive attitude (try), and avoid vices. At least, if we have a strong immune system, we can fight if we get sick.

To all those living in “mosquito” infested countries, whether your insects are Dengue or Malaria carriers or not, take precautions still, use mosquito repellants, insect sprays, protect the children most specially, wear protective  garments and SWAT THOSE MOZZIES!!!
