The Three Things that I Could NOT Live Without

A cold Monday to all of you lovelies! It has been raining for 3 consecutive days here at our place, and this constant rain has made me too lazy to think about what to write. The good thing was that I happened to read articles from different users about the articles that they had written on other platforms. I first read @Eylz2021article, and next was @TengoLoTodo 's. Sorry for the mention guys.

Their topic is about the three things that they have now but can't live without. And I thought I'd share my three things I couldn't live without as well.

Medicines

You all know that I am suffering from Myasthenia gravis and have to take medications for the rest of my life. Before I had this, I seldom took medication if I felt a slight headache, fever, or any pain in my body as long as I could take it. My Lola advised me not to become addicted to drugs because, according to her, our bodies have the ability to heal themselves, and I believe she is correct.

But now, in my condition, I am now drug dependent. How ironic is life, isn't it? My main medicines are Mestinon and Prednison. It helps me eat and speak, and the other meds are vitamins for my bones, muscles, and nerves. So basically, I could not live without it, lol!

Cellphones

As a blogger, writer, and someone that has to work or grind online, a cellphone is my source of income. I wouldn't be able to work without it. And as someone who lives far from their family, I need it to communicate and to still keep in touch with them. 

I come from a big family. My Lola has nine children, and they live in one house even if they have a family already. We call that extended family, and I grew up in such surroundings. At first, it's loud and noisy, and you can hear an argument from time to time, but at the end of the day, we end up laughing from all those shinanigans that have happened. Because of that, I grew up close to my family. 

And now that I live far away from them, it is important for me to at least have a chat or talk to them from time to time. Thanks to our technology nowadays, it helps us stay connected to our loved ones.

Eyeglass

I have been using my eyeglasses for 3 years. My first eyeglasses were from EO Optical, a well-known company for making or producing eyeglasses. I was 39 years old at the time, and it cost me 2,800 pesos. But unfortunately, my dog Maya munched it. It was like it was a total wreck. My initial reaction was, of course, I was mad, but then I realized that my dog must have ingested the broken glasses and was worried that she might die. So I observed her for days and was glad that she was fine. But my eyeglasses were not, hehe. 

So I went to an optical clinic again and got a new pair of eyeglasses. Basically, I could no longer live without it because I could not see things clearly now. Before I wore them, my neighbors would often think that I was a snobbish person, but the truth is, I just could not see who was in front of me clearly.
