***this is a sticky post, please scroll down for newer entries. ty!
It’s funny how real life turns out so
different from its movie and tv representations. I grew up with the impression
that men are the strong ones and women are homemakers, Martha Stewart clones if
you may. Having my own family woke me up to the realization that my whole life
was a lie and everything was turned upside down.
Dramatics aside, I guess you can say that my partner and I
are quite the unconventional couple. I do the handy work while he does the
cooking. It’s not that I’m more of a man than he is, we just enjoy the division
of labor this way more. When it comes to health, I am also the resilient one.
My daughter took after my husband who isn’t really what I would call sickly but
rather more sensitive when it comes to germs and bacteria that is why I am very
particular about what goes in and out of our house.
I grew up with a younger brother who had a very sensitive
stomach and would be in and out of the hospital constantly from severe
diarrhea. I saw my mother’s stress and worry each time they had to confine him.
It’s something I never want to go through myself because a. who wants that? and
b. I will not be able to stand the added
workload to my already long list of chores.
To avoid the unnecessary stress,
I make sure that our water at home is clean and safe.
From experience and advice from our pedia and G.P., only one
name stood out among the bunch and that’s Wilkins. My partner’s grandma who is
quite in her senior years and cannot afford to get sick or catch an infection
swears by it. True enough, she has stayed reasonably healthy throughout the
years. My mom has also shifted to Wilkins, so have we. And guess what? No signs of diarrhea or
anything severe in our homes.
So even if it is
sometimes a hassle to drive and pick up our water supply, I don’t mind. Having
healthy and happy “soldiers” at home make it all worthwhile.
