I had no fight and I would have resisted if I had. The doctor came and said I was close to hospitalisation. I had bronchitis as well as flu. He prescribed some antibiotics. I recovered from the flu but as soon as I started eating again my stomach got bad. My emetophobia was ever present. I was just so nervous all the time. When would I not feel sick? I hardly slept because I’d dream of being sick and wake up expecting to do so. I’d spend the days hiding away from people in case they were ill and I didn’t want to catch anything.

I caught the flu and lay in bed, hardly able to breathe and without an appetite. Strangely, I realised that now I wasn’t eating any food my stomach actually felt fine.
