How's your health now? That's really sad to hear about this. I think it might be to hard for you to bear up this pain for so long.
Illness is really becoming common these days and ranges well from normal to crucial, just few days back I got a fever and was really hard to bear because of the increasing heat.
I think being healthy is really important but besides is really difficult, you just try your best but sometimes some things do come in the way to stop this maintenance and you really can't bear that and forget the idols which you set to achieve for your health.!!
