~Object 29~ A Stomach
A stomach is one of those things you don't notice unless something is wrong, or you are mistreating it. If you are noticeably hungry, you should have eaten sooner. If you are noticably full, you ought to have eaten less, or more slowly. If you notice your stomach for any other reason, well, you're either sick or should have chosen something else for dinner.
Today she feels sick, but she knows she's not. Her stomach, or whatever is actually causing this problem, is giving her sharp pain, mainly when she stands up, but also when she moves suddenly. She's wondering if perhaps she might have a food allergy or intollerance, but whatever it is, she's sick of it.
It doesn't happen too dreadfully often, but now that she thinks about it, maybe it does. It's not usually this bad, but it does happen about once a week, sometimes more, sometimes less.
She hates that she spent most of the day in bed and she wasn't even truly ill, but what could she do, really? You know, she really must figure out what the problem is and take care of it, because there is so much work to be done and she doens't need an extra excuse not to do it.
Over and out,
~Emily
P.S. Prayer would be much appreciated; I'm in a good deal of pain right now. I would love to not be allergic to anything, but if cutting something out of my diet would make this stop, I'm willing. Sorry for the poor quality of this post; I was so tempted not to write today, but I felt sort of guilty... Blessings to you all!
