After a trip to the forest, Alex felt a sharp pain from an insect sting on his leg. Initially, he thought it was a minor issue and just applied some antiseptic cream. (21). Soon, he developed a severe rash and a sore throat, showing clear signs of a serious infection. The doctors had to use a strong anti-inflammatory drug to reduce the intensity of his swelling. During his first week of recovery, his nights were filled with struggles. The heavy medication caused him to experience a terrifying nightmare that was still fresh in his memory every morning. (22). His parents were terrified of waking a sleepwalker, so they just carefully guided him back to bed. Every day, he woke up feeling extremely bleary-eyed and desperately needed to catch up on his rest. (23). To speed up his healing, a highly respected doctor advised him to follow a strict nutritional plan. He had to avoid fast food and focus on wholegrain food with a good amount of fibre and calcium. (24). This straightforward diet helped him boost his immune system and control his calorie intake. (25). With strong willpower, he fully recovered and returned to his normal routine. (Adapted from New York Post)
