Going through the stages of having the flue

This flue I have been experiencing over the past week, has certainly come its stages, first experencing the sore throat. This has been carried through the duration so far. Then there is the nightly coughing. Which somehow seems to go on from the time you go to bed at night, until you get up the next day. Then there is the fever, swetts, chills all catagorised under the same. Then there is the temperature. This is what has to be watched out for, especially if going over 100!!! Which is were my has been quite a bit during this flue. Then there is the ear ache. Since 4:00 a.m. this morning I was awoken by this sharp pane in my left ear. Since then there it stay. Oh please go away. 
As I had made my way to the kitchen this morning at 9:00 a.m. to drink my hot cocoa and have a piece of toast with cinnamon on it, I sat there thinking one more week of bed rest and this virus should be gone. At 9:38 I then brushed my teeth and shaved. At 10:00 I then sat down to fill my pill containers for the week. I had not the energy, but it had to be done. At 10:15 I then spoke to a friend on the phone briefly. At 11:45 I had fell a sleep and did so for one hour and fourty-five minutes. I then got up to stretch and get some water before going back to bed. My ear had still been asching. I then opened a card I had received in the mail. It was a valentines day card from my parents. Once I had put some laundry away, I had made my way out into the kichen at 2:30 to drink some hot water with honey. At 2:48 my father had made my mother and I  each a grilled tun and cheese sandwhich for lunch. At 3:00 I then took  three tylanol for some pain. I then brushed my teeth before taking my shower at 3:12. Now I will go back to a nice clean bed of which my parents had changed for me and wait for the Super Bowl to start. Go Team!!!!
