In November, I was sick for a month. I was coughing like crazy after contracting a respiratory virus.

Early December, I’m getting better. I was doing my things, like, changing my son’s bedsheets, when I had a small cough. And I heard “clok” sound in my body, followed by a very intense pain in my cage.

I had cracked a rib. Not caused by how intense the cough was, but by repetition of the coughing for more than a month.
