Cat Fight

Last Sunday, after eating with my co- week 2 Junior Kids volunteers, I just hastily felt an intense pain on my leg. I was shocked and surprised because I really don't know what happened. I eventually saw a cat and..I realized it scratched me. (I'm not even sure if it's a scratch or what..it's so fast..it happened in seconds!)

I've  been struggling about these thoughts:

..should I see a Doctor or what? I got a little headache, cold and cough..
..should I have a vaccine? It's so expensive and I'm afraid of injections..
..what if I don't? I don't want to have Rabies! That's really a serious disease!
..but I'm wearing pants when the cat scratch me..maybe the saliva didn't go further?
I even wash the wound in soap and water.  I even go to the health center yesterday and told me that if it's just a scratch, I should just clean it up with Agua Oxinada and Betadine.

But I searched google.. tons of tips...symptoms and all.
I should get a vaccine right away on Day 0 but it'll be Day 3 tomorrow. I'm still here and confused.

My Mom said if it's just a scratch I don't need a vaccine. ..

Okay..I think I would really go to the Doctor and let them decide..


Consultation tomorrow... Whew!

When my hope is gone
When the fear is strong
When the pain is real
When the it's hard to heal.

When my faith is shaken
And my heart is broken
And my joy is stolen
God I know that you lift me up
You never leave me searching ....
