HEARTBURN

 Hey Netflix and Chillers, 

If you're Indian, you know our food contains 95 percent spice. If you're a cancer patient that luxury is taken away from you. You have to eat bland food. For those of you who carry a bottle of hot sauce, you have to wave goodbye to it. Sad times right? You gotta forget about eating spicy food. My male parent lives on tobasco, or the Algerian hot sauce in all types of different food. The red and green chillies are a memory from the past. Having people with African roots in the family. They love paprika and chilli powder in food. This will give a person heart burn. Even ketchup tastes horrible. You have to eat bland food like mac and cheese, or vegetarian food. You miss meat. For someone who eats different types of meat such as: 

Paloney (Similar to a pepperoni)

Cold meat

Chicken strips

Chicken legs/ wings

Lamb chops

Lamb ribs

Steak

Burgers

Roast chicken. 

Crispy chicken

Sausages.

Donner

Brisket

The list goes on. Living without meat would make someone like me drop on the floor. I even missed extra spicy prawns. To get rid of the stabbing pain of heartburn have Gaviscon. It's disgusting, but effective. I'd put something warm on it like a hot water bottle. I'd also have soda water to burp. A bubble of air gets stuck in your chest leading to heart burn. It's like all the gas gets stuck there. It's hard to breathe. I had to have oxygen once. I put special prayed water on it called Zam-Zam. The story of it is legendary. A woman was left in the desert with a baby. She looked for water for ages and ran seven times on two mountains. They're called Safa and Marwa. Then the baby kicked his foot on the sand and God made the ground open up and water came. This is how Zam-Zam came to Makkah. 

It makes teh pain go away. 

That's all for now.

LOSING HAIR/CUTTING IT OFF AND DONATING IT TO CHARITY/WIGS/HOME BARBER SESSIONS

Hi Unique Readers,  The most devastating part of treatment. My long thick, straight hair filled with Asian roots fell out. Big clumps were all over the floor and pillow of my hospital room. I was saddened on another level. I know it was gonna grow back, but hair is a huge deal when it comes to being a girl. We take pride in it. It shapes the foundation of who we are as people. It brings us confidence in ourselves. Each style gives us a new personality. It's not cool to have bold patches on your head. I did the next best thing. Get your male parent to cut it off until it's neck length then you don't have any problems. Scissors can do a wonderful job. It wasn't perfect, but it made me feel 10 times better. It gave me back a little bit of pride in my appearance. The rest of the hair got plaited, and secured together with bobbles (hair ties, hair bands as some of you might call them.) I sent it off to a charity called The Little Princess Trust. They use real hair to make wi...

SHARING A ROOM WITH ANOTHER PERSON

 Hi Gorgeous Readers,  The first time I shared a room with someone was at night-time. It was the worst experience at first. Having someone blasting T.V shows across from you isn't the greatest feeling when you dislike noise. Eventually, you have to suck it up, and deal with it. The next couple of weeks in my home away from home, I got to know the person's male parent. The most down to earth, kind person. I was super formal at first, because if a person is all tatted up, you get scared out of your mind. To find out they're compassionate, and understanding makes you more comfortable around them. I preached about my religion loads. Even though the person couldn't chat much, I still felt connected to them, because they knew what I was going through silently.  The person had a cool sensory lava lamp. I used to stare at the colours at night time. or during the day. It made me feel safe and calm. I was in that room until I had a mouth infection. I had to go in a different room...
