I throw up an average of 4 times a day now, and have a parasite from finding grubs for my baby turtle. But I can tell you one thing... No illness, no matter how bad, will prevent me from taking care of my baby girl, Squirtle. She might seem like a petty baby turtle, but she's more than that to me. She's my daughter. On other news, I've dropped to 35 pounds due to my parasite. Writing will be slowed down.
