No matter how logical I want to be, there are events that have happened to me that just got me wondering how events can concurrently turn. Not because I did anything to deserve them, but it was simply a boy in dare need of help who mysteriously found help. If I was passing by and saw $1,000,000 You can call that a coincidence, if I was going to work and Bill Gates suddenly decided he would take a taxi and I mysteriously bumped into him inside a taxi I would accept it as a mad coincidence. But if the things I have survived happen to just anyone, in the conditions I was in without any external help, I can assure you, such a person would be as good as dead.
So one time, I decided I was going to stop taking my monthly medications. This happened over seven years ago, I was always falling sick and needed my meds. Getting into the higher institution, my mum would always want to make sure I don't skip a month without taking my meds and at a point it was becoming tiring. I listened to someone who said it's possible to live without medications as he had been living without medications for over 25 years. I thought to myself, if it was possible, I should be able to do it. So I decided to stop taking medicines of any sort. I was only able to stop for two months until I became very sick, so bad that my school had to call my parents out of fear that I wasn't going to survive it. Thankfully I did, the doctors were able to revive me and warned that I should never try to skip my meds again.
I was so angry with myself even when I was still at the hospital, I was wondering what I was not doing right, I really wanted to never feel sick again and in my heart I was determined to do so even though I didn't know how. After that month I stopped taking my meds again, this time I was ready for anything that was going to happen. I was more than ready to die trying and luckily for me, my parents just secured a private apartment for me outside of campus with only one roommate. My roommate had traveled, leaving me alone at home. It had been less than a month since I stopped taking the meds and I began to feel sick again. This time around I was ready to die and told myself I would never ever take my meds again.
That rainy Friday I needed to go to church, but couldn't even move my body talkless leaving the house. I was burning hot, and feeling cold at the same time, my head was spinning and the weather wasn't helping. At a point I felt empty and just wanted to rest, I wish I would just close my eyes and the whole pain would end. But still I wasn't ready to take my meds, I had even thrown them away so I wouldn't take them out of pressure. Now there I was suddenly feeling the need to go outside, suddenly finding the strength to stand up, I was still very cold, my body was still very hot, my head was still spinning, but it was as though something was calling me in the rain. I mean it was raining cats and dogs that day and here I was like a zombie walking into the rain.
At first the cold sensation of the rain was unbearable, I literally wanted to die with the breeze and all, but somehow I was walking in the rain until I left my compound. It was as though I was mind controlled and when I got to a point I just realized I was all drenched with the strength to run back home. Getting home I was so hungry and just a little cold, it was so strange because I knew I was going to die about 10 minutes before but there I was with no trace of all the symptoms I had. After that day, I never had a need to take medicines until my accident last year and when I look back at that day, I can't help but wonder how on earth such a thing happened, it was definitely not a coincidence.
