悲壮

这几天的每一个清晨和每一个晚上,我总要做令我非常抗拒又非做不可的三部曲。
第一、刷牙。刷牙虽然本是小事一幢,但当你的上下牙龈全又痛又肿,刷牙就是一件非常艰辛的事。一来要用一种相当于刷等于没刷的力度,二来不小心弄到牙肉、附近的口疮是再平常不过的事。结果刷了一轮牙,洗脸盆上血迹斑斑……
第二、漱口。既然刷牙是以刷等于没刷的力度,漱口就得非常讲究了。最低限度也得用上Listerine吧?这一漱可就不得了,我希望它真的如广告所说的可以杀菌,否则我的命可是平白牺牲了。
最悲壮的,就属第三步了:以盐水漱口并饮之。我总是拖着沉重的步伐,慢慢地从房间一步一步地走下楼,像等着上靶场的囚犯,明明知道是难逃一劫的,却又想要争取那么一点点最后的自由的时光。我一个人呆呆地站在厨房,手里握着一杯盐水,像港剧内那些借酒消愁的失意人,目光无神,双眼含泪地往窗外望,偶尔眼泪还会不听使唤地缓缓滑过脸颊。小小半杯盐水,一喝就喝它半个小时……

平时我洗刷冲凉换衣到跳上汽车,前后最多也只不过二十分钟。这熬人的三部曲几时才会成为过去呢?

  2. Coxsackie virus would usually last for one week depending on your body immune system. It's more torturing when my 1 yr old daughter was infected few months back. She couldn't drink water or milk which was almost her sole food intake at that time. Very pityful at night time when she couldn't get to sleep. I hope as adult your conditions would be much better.

    Get well soon...

    P/s: make sure you don't share personal things, cutleries, cup, plates etc. with others :)
