And it wasn't pretty.
Mosquito-borne virus that puts you on your back for 3-4 days. As my dad used to say, first I was afraid I was going to die, then I was afraid I wasn't.
The powerful headache and fever were bad enough but the joint pain was almost unbearable. I swear, every bone in my body hurt. One can hardly stand up from the bed though the only reason one would want to leave the bed is for the bathroom.
I've heard that this virus has swept the country, though I can't confirm that. I do know that it has swept this pueblo as I've talked to a dozen or more neighbors who are just now recovering from it.
