Unavailability to speak for a day has been really difficult. It all started with a high fever on Sunday 17th, 2010, and then proceeded with flu and cough. The condition got worst after each night due to screaming and yelling at the childrens during the day. Fortunately I manage to hold on to my voice throughout my working period until saturday, and my voice was totally out!
The phlegm and mucus that clog up the passage way has prevented the air vibration taking place from the voice box. It was really difficult for me to commune with the others especially when I was outside.
I have to count on my little pad and a pen to drop all my messages, and the listeners (readers) have to like.... 'arhhhh.... when will she done writing' or 'nevermind nevermind, after you completely heal only start talking'!
It is really a slow process in conveying thoughts though!
Sighhh.....
Today's Sunday, and my voice still not completely understanable yet and there is still stuck stuck here and there.....
I've tried all sorts of medication but still, there's no sign of recovery.
And tomorrow, there's another working hours awaits me... and my routine of shouting and yelling will be repeated again.
I do not know how long I can withstand without damaging my voice box.
Anyway, hopefully I'll get my voice back tomorrow with no more phlegm :)
~Best wishes for me~
