Dear Paula, 

Hello Paula, how are you? It's been a month since l last heard from you.  Well l just wanted to tell you that I was in a hospital last week.  According to the doctor l was infected by dengue fever.

At first, I felt my body became weak then fainted when was studying in the classroom.  Then, I was taken to the hospital because of the high fever. 

At the hospital, I was brought into the emergency unit.

After the final check, the doctor gave me permission to go home. Now, I'm okay and because of my illness, I am now more careful about keeping in my house clean especially my room, I don't want to get the same illness again. 

OK, think that's all from me, write to me soon ok?

Regards
