What to say..? What to do..? What to write..?

I am still figuring out the situation I am in....

I am having sore throat, headache and lower back pain from yesterday night...and I was thinking of resting whole day but then I realise my mother having cough for more than a week now and taking medication for it...

She is very careless when it comes to her health, I feel every parents have this problem of not taking their health very seriously and thus, I try to give help from my side but still most of the household she does by herself....

And, when I got sick, she started paying 100% attention to my health and while all of this happening I got this thought that WHY I am am resting whole day..

I mean its good and needed right now but my mother who is decades older than me and being sick for a whole week, she literally doing majority of household work by herself even when she was having headache and sore throat like me...

I was wondering how she is able to do this...how she is able to bear the pain and still give the best to her work and why can't I do the same?

If I go back in time then I got answers to this question which is, she spent her childhood and adulthood in the village where she had worked even in toughest situation than this one...

Her body learned to handle this situation and still maintain her quality of work on daily basis

To be honest, I did try to work while I was sick as even I want to build my body strong and want to learn how to handle this kinda intense situation of illness

AND, I FAILED!

Even though I had rest for whole day, I was just so restless and cant focus on my work

Its easy to say then done...

It will take time and constant effort to build that kind of strength my mother has...and I hope I will be able to atleast come close to her strength
