Like this:

It was exam time and exam time meant studies. It also meant that a much needed break from studies was just around the corner. It is for this break that every student studies.

“…just a few days more and then I’ll go back home and enjoy.!” thought Prateek while studying for the last examination.

But as every student does, he felt asleep, just to wake up after 3 hrs to know that he was suffering from fever.

“Bhai, lets go see a doc.!” Rahul, his roommate observed.

They went to a doctor. There they diagnosed the illness as tonsils and some infection. The medicines were issued and were taken as per the recommendation. But, then, he felt nothing more than some temporary relief.

So, he went again and this time the doctor diagnosed Steven Johnson Syndrome.

It meant he was allergic to certain drugs. He suddenly remembered his mother, who was also suffering from the same illness.

And he smiled, dialed his mother’s number and when he heard..

“Hello Beta!”

He said,” Mother, I’m like you.”

PS: This post is dedicated to all the Steven Johnson Syndrome suffers and to my mother who is one of them.

PS:rock on !!!
