This morning I woke up screaming - I guess I had a bad dream...now you know what they say, take a deep breath and calm down...only I found I couldn't...for those who dont know, I am prone to wheezing (now if you dont know what that is, go thank your stars RIGHT NOW)...so no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't breathe, each breath was a herculean effort, a condition I would choose hell over...and what made it worse than hell was that I realised that I had misplaced my inhaler...
By some fortune or good luck, I was at home, and all I had to do was to tell someone....within 5 minutes I had an inhaler in my hand...someone else had done it all....my driver went and got it, someone paid for it...all I had to do was to ask for it....
Still, that 5 minutes of waiting seemed like an eternity, I wouldve said yes to anything to end it....
What about who don't have easy access to a medical store? What about those who cant afford the 100 bucks for it? What about those who don't have people to rescue them??
Guess I am one lucky soul....but why? By what virtue?
