Meningitis.

inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, known collectively as the meninges. Meningitis may develop in response to a number of causes, usually bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, but also physical injury, cancer or certain drugs. While some forms of meningitis are mild and resolve on their own, meningitis is a potentially life-threatening condition due to the proximity of the inflammation to the brain and spinal cord. The potential for serious neurological damage or even death necessitates prompt medical attention and evaluation. Infectious meningitis, the most common form, is typically treated with antibiotics and requires close observation.

dearest sookee, do get well soon... It break our hearts to see you lying so thin & frail on the hospital bed. Very nearly cried while in the ward to see her this way. Let's just say I'm glad she's getting the necessary attention and in good hands.

I wonder how come friends around me have been getting hospitalized. It makes me tell myself that from now on, I should listen to my body more. Whatever signs or symptoms may well be telling me sth that's happening to my body. Please all, do take care of yourself...



On a lighter note, I decided today is a good-hair day! And I love this shot! I seldom cam-whore so... bear with me a while. haha.
