Lonliness: A sad affair

Sometimes I love being alone, doing my stuff, but these days I am just lonely.
For the past three and a half months I have been living in a remote jungle trying to make a living, It was worth the experience, but the place being a malarial infested region, I caught the disease twice in three weeks time and now after the treatments for malaria I got the side effects of the drugs and now I am afflicted with Pleurisy. I got fluids in my stomach and lungs and now I am bedridden and on top of that I have no one to lean back on, just my parents.
I have no regrets but sometimes I wish I had someone to take care of me, nights are hard and when I take my treatments its even harder, I just can't do anything but I am compelled to do them cause I have to take care of myself.
I am blogging this just to let people know that if you have friends or spouses or anybody you are related to who is unwell, take care of them, be with them, support them, wherever you are just let them feel your presence,and you will know beyond you reckoning how fast they could recover, because its just not the disease thats making them sick, its the matter of heart too. Never let them be lonely...Lonliness is such a sad disease too.
As for me I am still Waiting for my loved ones besides my folks at home to come to me and comfort me, its been more than four months since I have longed to be with them.
