My childhood experience

sharing with you my childhood memories,one of those i will never forget.

I can remember when I was a kid i almost had no problem in life my job was to wake up go to school come back play eat sleep and wake up to do the same thing the next morning.
I was always praying for Christmas to come or end of the year school party to come
So I could get new dresses 👗 and new shoes and also visit my cousin's and grandparents from both sides
These were the moments I never wished it should go away but since life nature has time for everything these moment comes and go.
I can also remember when I was 5 years old.
One morning I woke up to feel pains on my teeth I complained to my parent but the said it was normal that it will soon go away.

Like usual I tried to over look and continue playing but the pain were intense.
I came back and ask for drugs to ease the pain. But they told me it did not need medical attention that I would be fine soon

I stopped to asked my self how can someone be sick and does not need medical attention or is tooth pain not sickness.
Since my parents could not help (so I thought) I decided to go to my senior brother who was 2 years older than me for help.

On telling my brother my problem he told me "you know I want to be medical doctor in future" I answered "yes I know"

"So lemme hurriedly get some medicine from my hospital for you"
I nodded and waited.

My brother ran to the bush (his imaginary hospital) plugged some leaves only known to him pounded it squeeze water out of it and brought it to me telling me to rob it on my teeth the pains would go away.
I resisted for a moment but latter did as commanded.

Immediately the concoction entered my throat i started throwing up the throwing up continued for like what seems like an eternity.

To some point my brother was scared he just looked at me as if he had nothing to do with that.
he didn't want to call my mom but he had to.
When my mom came i was rushed to the hospital. I don't want to talk about what my brother suffered that nite.
When I was healed I promised my self I will always obey my parent no matter what.

The reality of this whole episode was that I was about to loose my temporary teeth.
