    I remember a couple of years ago, I burned my immune system to the ground doing sport and gym, and caught pneumonia.

    So what did this genius do? Not wait long enough before he went back to physical stuff and caught it again a week later.

    This is what I remind myself of when I’m getting antsy sitting around sick now.

      Rest is a kind of work , even tho we aren’t moving our limbs doesn’t mean we aren’t working. Rest is letting your immune system focus on fighting bugs and rest lets your body repair itself.]

      I cried with frustration at having to lay in bed 23.5 hours a day for 8 weeks, but it was the only way my vertebrate would mend, only way my spine and nerves would reduce swelling. Rest. Let the body repair.

      Just rest.

        You’re right. I’m taking your advice and lounging in bed and reading.

        Might bring the laptop in here to play some games.

        Thank you ❤️
