Missing in action

April 6th while I was trying to study a little of the world of cryptocurrency and trading, I felt my migraine was acting up. It was not because of the numbers that I saw or the chart that I was looking at but there was a moment where I removed my sunglasses as I could not see clearly all the numbers on my screen. I did not realized that I removed my glasses so when I looked at the window, the bright light of the sun had an impact on my eyes and minutes after I felt it knocking on my right side. I instantly brewed a black coffee as it is my first remedy for it.

Sadly it did not go away so I rubbed oil into my right forehead, right temple up to my nape. Still did not work so I placed ice but still the same. I took a long cold shower but the pain was still there. I stayed on my bed right after taking a bath and I know that this is the migraine where I would need to puke. True enough as minutes after I was running to the bathroom and vomitted what I just ate together with the coffee. I puke countless of times to the point where I do not have anything to throw up. I felt like I was having a very bad hangover. I even felt one of my veins on my right side was going to burst while I was vomitting the last time. It was really one of the worst migraines I have ever had.

The following day I decided not to touch my phone as there was still a slight but tolerable pain on my right side. But I cannot help it since I did not have any published article the night before and that feeling of wanting to make some noise and looking at the value of BCH has been what I have done in the past 4 months. I tried to finish my article about slimming products.

April 8th, I woke up feeling a little dizzy and light headed. I tried to check my blood pressure with our automatic BP monitor but they were both different. I was not sure if I was low blood, normal or high blood. Majority of the comments that I got on noise.cash said that it was never accurate. So I decided not to be stressed out because I have been thinking a lot of things lately probably because it is a new month and I need to pay my bills again or because I was thinking of what phone model to buy, what to give to my mom on mother's day and how to save even more money. I really hate over thinking but I cannot help it. Again I was not that online that day and only checked my phone if there are messages but I am thankful that I was able to publish an article despite what I was feeling.

The following day, as I opened my eyes, I thanked the Lord for waking me up and I even told myself that it was a beautiful day. After saying my short prayer, I instantly checked on my phone and there I saw that it was showing an Apple logo. At first I thought that I needed to charge it so I did. My mom said that she charged my phone but I did not mind her as I was already furious about what's happening with my phone. It kept on showing only the Apple logo. I did try to forced restart it but still it was the same. Then I asked my mom what happened and she said she charged it and even saw that from 22% it went to 25% and then then next thing she saw was the Apple logo. She said that she thought the logo will go away but it did not so she removed the cable.

The things that I thought when I could not open my phone were my seed phrases. Yes, you have read that right. I haven't written down my seeds after all the warning of other users and what had happened to me early this year. I was so confident that it was safe on my phone and that my phone would not give up on me.

The last time I have read about seed phrases was when Laurenceuuu made a post on noise.cash and said that he would right a note or letter where he would include all the seeds of his wallets and give it to his parents and even instructions on how to withdraw the money if in case something will happen to him. That moment it was the universe telling me to write down my seeds but I didn't.

Sad to say but I am back to zero. It is very unlikely for me to miss a day without publishing here on read.cash. If ever I did, it only happened twice when I thought I had published it but it turns out I didn't. And then there was that time when I had my migraine which I have mentioned earlier. 

April 9 is the day of valour here in the Philippines which commemorates all the Filipino and American soldiers who went up against the Japanese during the World War II. For me I felt like my phone and I are the Filipino and American soldier because we both died that day. Well my phone slightly died or is in coma because he has been stuck in the Apple logo. For me my phone is a male because of its color. LOL. He is still beating as he kept on flashing that logo. And I died because I lost my seeds. But I am still hoping and praying  that one day it will turn on again.

Now that I am back, I will try my best to be as active as how I was before. And also I need to get back all the BCH that I have lost. Fighting!

Do not be like me! Copy your seed phrases if you haven't yet (though I know majority of you have already written it a long time ago).
