UPDATE APRIL 22, 2014: \u00a0Okay, I’m 100% healthy. \u00a0 It took me almost two weeks to get fully healthy. \u00a0That sucked. \u00a0BUT, it’s a lot shorter that previous bronchitis attacks I’ve had in the past. \u00a0I remember about three years ago or so, that cough stuck around for a few months.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

UPDATE APRIL 20, 2014:<\/strong> \u00a0It’s 2:45am in the morning and I actually feel well. \u00a0Coughing has about 99% gone. \u00a0I still coughed once or twice to get the last of the moisture out of my lungs. \u00a0 But nothing is green, and my strength is 100% back. \u00a0In fact, I’m back to lifting again at my house, and for some reason, I’m a lot stronger than I was. \u00a0My next wedding is on the 24th, so I have 4 more days to rest up. \u00a0I should be 100% by then.<\/p>\n

UPDATE APRIL 17, 2014:<\/strong> \u00a0Yesterdays wedding went well. \u00a0My voice wasn’t as loud as it could be because I’m still not 100% healed. \u00a0My cough came back a little at the end of the photoshoot for some reason. \u00a0I’m thinking it had something to do with salt-air and humidity at the beach. \u00a0It was loosening up all of my left over phlegm (I’m sure you wanted to hear that). \u00a0 My energy was a little low during the wedding, strength wise. \u00a0 But the good news is that I still got great shots, and I was still able to do my job. \u00a0 I’m also working on my backlog of emails that I got over the past few days.<\/p>\n

So my self prognosis is that I’m healthy enough to function, take calls, write emails starting tomorrow. \u00a0 I’m still resting at home though. \u00a0I have another wedding on Friday, then six days off. \u00a0 I should be completely healed by then.<\/p>\n

UPDATE APRIL 16, 2014:<\/strong> \u00a0Well, I’m happy to say I’m about 90% healthy. \u00a0Maybe closer to 95%. \u00a0I’ve shaken most of my cough, but my voice is still not there, and my tonsils are still a bit swollen. \u00a0 Energy is a bit lower than usual, but I think if I have a power nap, that will resolve it. \u00a0I do have a wedding later on in the day. \u00a0Doctors have said as long as I don’t share food or kiss the bride, I can’t spread the virus…haha…… \u00a0After the wedding, I’ll be resting to get rid of the last of this virus. \u00a0I’m almost healthy! \u00a0Almost there…<\/p>\n

By the way, I’ve gotten your emails, just have had much time to respond. \u00a0I’ve been sleeping… a lot<\/p>\n

UPDATE APRIL 14, 2014:<\/strong> \u00a0Finally, major progress in my cold. \u00a0I woke up with zero congestion. \u00a0My tonsils are still slightly swollen, but nothing like yesterday. \u00a0My voice is not back to normal, but about 60% there. \u00a0The cough is still here, but I feel as though it’s on it’s last leg. \u00a0I am asthmatic by the way, so bronchitis hits me a lot harder than others. Everything looks good for a 90% recovery in the next two days. \u00a0I think the cough will stick around for at least another week.<\/p>\n

UPDATE APRIL 13, 2014:\u00a0<\/strong>If you guessed that I’m still sick, you’re right. \u00a0Slowly getting better. \u00a0Not cough as much, but my tonsils now are slightly swollen. \u00a0I checked the back of my throat, no white dots, do it’s not strep. \u00a0No fever, ear aches, stomach aches, headaches, so I’m deducing it’s nothing something serious. \u00a0 Just that the virus in my lungs has moved up to my throat. \u00a0I remember this happening last time I had bronchitis. \u00a0Right before I was done with it, my tonsil got swollen. \u00a0Lets see if I’m right.<\/p>\n

UPDATE APRIL 12, 2014: \u00a0<\/strong>Still sick, but getting better. \u00a0Cough is still there, but much better. \u00a0My voice still has not returned to full yet. \u00a0And I still can’t laugh without coughing. \u00a0Thank you for emailing me your inquiries instead of calling. \u00a0I really appreciate it. \u00a0I should be getting over this soon. \u00a0Sunday will come up to my one week anniversary of getting bronchitis. \u00a0I can’t wait to get over this. \u00a0Honestly, I’d rather have the flu.<\/p>\n

UPDATE APRIL 11, 2014: \u00a0<\/strong>I’m still sick. \u00a0 My cough, thank god, has subsided a little, but my voice still sounds as though I’m a wannabe cross-dresser. \u00a0I am feeling better, but my energy is still not up to full so I am sleeping a lot. \u00a0 I’ll keep this blog updated with my health to let you know when I’m back up to running at a 100%.<\/p>\n

Today is April 9th, 2014, Wednesday, and <\/span>I can’t answer my phone<\/span> as my voice is not loud, nor constant. \u00a0That and I’m hocking up a lugie every other minute. \u00a0 I am though, still working full. \u00a0I don’t have any weddings till April 16th,so the timing of this chest cold couldn’t have been better. \u00a0 I would rather not have a chest cold, given the option, of course.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since I am a little sick couple things:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I don’t be able to answer phone calls, but will be able to answer emails and text<\/li>\n
  2. I’m not responding as timely as before because I’m hopped up on drugs and sleeping a lot. \u00a0 So if you can be a little patient with me that’d be great.<\/li>\n
  3. If you do call, leave your email addy so I can return it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I should be up and running to full capacity hopefully by the end of this week. \u00a0 It’s just that I needed to get this message out to everyone, because I can see couples ringing my phone, leaving messages, which I am unable to return through voice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
