It's been 3 days I posted anything on Hive and it's beginning to look like I'm not be fully active as I use to be, at least, not anytime soon. This isn't because of the market conditions, this is infact because of the health scare I've had for over 5 weeks now.
Before that illness hit, I only had a sore throat and then fever, only for it to spiral to blood in urine, and anemia including other complications and symptoms.
For the first time ever, I've slowed down. I got paid about 650$ before my illness broke out from my last Twitter gig, and the money came in handy, but now, I can't even hustle as I used to, the fear of crashing into another illness, the scare of raising blood pressure, the uncertainty of building something good, just to get sick when it all begins to yield dividends.
I've come to realize that nothing we truly have is ours, especially when the health comes crashing down.
I took a break from almost everything, except a few other things to provide money for food and medicine, it feels like just living to afford the medical bill of next week, or replacing the pills of tomorrow, food and shelter.
No big plans nothing, just survive today, have faith, hope and pray that tomorrow is better. Today I decided to express my thoughts once again.
I got a DM from someone who thought I was quitting Hive because they thought I was no longer motivated or because of price. They said it in a way that insinuated "well if josediccus is giving up, we might as well just pack it up"
In the previously years I've been active through illness and all that, but I haven't been hit as big as this in 4 years, it was constantly rampaging and my body was in severe pain.
7 years ago, I could push past it, but I'm older now, and recovery seems to take longer. Again,
I'm not leaving Hive, by I guess times will come where 3, 4 or 5 months breaks will now be inevitable, either due to illness, in real life issues, or psychological issues to deal with.
Today is a better day, and I'm scheduling my hospital appointments for 2 to 3 weeks time, with the hope that I could have gotten even better. Thanks to everyone who texted me, I may not reply, because I'm just trying to push recovery but thanks a million, I appreciate everything.
For 5 weeks? That's really much bro. I think you really need to calm your nerves and stay positive cause being scared can worsen the situation.
I understand how it feels like being scared of the unknown and hustling just to pay hospital bills instead of using the money to get other stuffs that you desire.
Sorry man.
Our prayer is that you get well soonest.
Coping with sickness and paying all necessary bills can never be easy, it can be overwhelming and make someone lose focus, so I think I understand why you are not as active as before, it's just that people like us will miss your daily articles.
This highlights the need to have passive income, we can work a lot, we can put all effort but if the body crush you, you just need something to keep you up even if you can barely hold a phone... If you need to pay for bills, good or medicines, withdraw some hive, I'm sure no one will have to say anything and you will rebuild your stake up when it's all sorted
mhen seriously speaking I looked out for you, been days no feed from you, I just knew you needed some time off, how you feeling now, I'm sure there's a little of progress right?, stay strong buddy just a phase it'll pass
5 week is really a long time … get well soon 😀🤗
Taking it one day at a time is a good way to go with the recovery process. I think sometimes it's needed to listen to the body and go with its flow and own time. Hopefully this won't turn into the new normal but rather a transition to get back to better health :)
I hope you are continuing to heal up. I've had a couple off days too and didn't post, it happens and you've been through a very rough patch lately. Continue to keep the faith and hang in there!
