In May my teeth hurt along with the
rest of my body. I have made a conscience
effort to brush them between medicine doses and always hope my teeth don’t rot
as a result of my being sick.
I do feel better today than
yesterday. My throat still hurts, but the
swollen gland is a smaller size than what it was yesterday.
I prefer drinking cold to room
temperature liquids. I enjoy gulping
water. I have never been a big fan of
warm to hot drinks. Once in a while, but
certainly not on a daily basis.
Roland, on the other hand, prefers hot
drinks to cold (one of our many many oppositions) and will drink a hot
chocolate even when it is 94 degrees outside.
I have learned that warm to hot drinks are better for the body’s system
than cold drinks are. Too bad.
One cannot “gulp” when the drink is
hot. I can’t take pills (medication,
vitamins) unless I am gulping. But
yesterday almost all of the liquid I put inside myself was warm to hot because warm
to hot liquids are recommended for a sore throat. Thus I will continue today. I miss my cold water.
