Sudafed Replay Contest For Sinusitis Sufferers

My mom told me that I got sick quite easily because I was a frail baby with sensitive immune system. I was in and out of hospitals because of that. Amazingly, I have learned to help improve my system by exercising and eating healthy foods. However, some things really don't change and go.

I have been plagued with sinusitis for as long as I can remember. It went to a very long hiatus that I thought I got cured already. And then one day, bam! I am suffering from sinusitis again. It became very prevalent around 2010 and I am still bothered by it upto now.

Having sinusitis is not a pleasant feeling. You feel like there is a pipe full of pressure that is about to explode in your nasal cavity. It gives me headaches, pain and the breathing is quite a challenge! It has caused me to miss a lot of activities where I could have enjoyed like hiking, trekking and even traveling. I have tried plenty of medications before. I have been in the doctors office one too many times and I have been prescribed anti-biotics to help me deal with the sinusitis problem because at one point, I kept having bleeding nose.

For once, I just want to be cured. It is an on and off thing and I hope  SUDAFED® can give me the relief I have been looking for.

SUDAFED® is hosting a fun giveaway/sweepstakes to sinus sufferers like myself! You will have a chance to win SUDAFED REPLAY™ to help them relive their regrettable and those missed out moments in their lives.

All you have to do describe those moments you have missed in the SUDAFED REPLAY™  app in the SUDAFED® Facebook page and you will be entered to win a $250 gift card for Flight replay, Sporting Event replay or Movie Event replay.

The contest will run until 6th of April, 2014. Open to US residents only +18.

The Simplest Blessing

I sometimes forget how blessed I am when I feel the little nuisances of life. Complaining on the littlest discomfort is so easy because I tend to look about how I feel without considering the feelings of others.

Today is a good day to change my perspective about life's discomfort and put my place in the shoes of other people.  I just finished doing the laundry without a sweat because I used a fully automatic washing machine. So, I shouldn't be complaining, right? However, the next part was the one that I was trying to avoid given my right shoulder's painful condition and the extreme weather outside (46 degrees Celcius at 11:56 a.m.). I didn't have a choice because I wanted to maximize the hot weather so the clothes could dry fast. I opened the veranda door and the hot air filled the room instantly and I started sweating. It was like standing in front on an open oven door. That is how hot the weather is right now. And then I saw them - the workers. Right in front of our building is a steel fabricating company. I saw the workers in their dirty jumpsuit with towels on their heads working, hammering steels, driving forklifts and doing their day-to-day routine. And there I was, standing on the veranda with our living room airconditioning unit on, putting the clothes to dry in the line for only few minutes and complaining already about the hot and humid weather. My inconvenience and discomfort is so insignificant compared to their hard work and sacrifices to support themselves and their families. It is 46 degrees Celcius outside and they are working, I cannot compete with that.

I took my camera and instantly snapped them. It will always be a reminder for me to not complain and be thankful because I have it easy. This is a testament of how blessed I am and I don't have a reason to doubt it. Thank you Lord for allowing me to see this new perspective in life. And please Lord, bless those hard working labourers outside who have to endure the hot weather to earn an honest living. Bless them all and give them a break.
