After a few rough days and long nights my virus seems to have subsided and I am on the mend. It is not the ideal way to start this adventure but I left a few extra days up my sleeve in case something like this happened. After receiving some fantastic advice from health professionals and care from my own personal nurse Mike I will be heading to that mountain right as rain in a few days.
The easy thing to do when you are feeling weak and beaten is to lye down and take it, but I feel a possitive attitude and telling yourself there will only be one outcome can be just as effective as any medication there is.
Thank you to everyone who has sent messages of support over the last few days, every message was read and acknowledged. 
Right….chicken soup time #cliche

Positivity is the best cure!
