This is an entry from my diary. Please check it and correct any mistakes.

Sometimes, I’m really grateful that I still survive. Once I got a fever when I was a child. I told my parents but they were watching TV and didn’t bother it, so they just asked me to take the medicine in the drawer. I saw the medicine and I was sure that’s for stomachaches. However, they insisted it worked. I took it and, of course, it was ineffective. I believe there has been something guarding me. If not, I would have died long ago.

I don't understand. Did you have a fever or a pain in your stomach?
 
Did you find a medicine that you knew was for stomach ache (note that that's two words), but your parents insisted that it would be effective against your fever?

Yes. 🤣
 
You told your parents you had a fever, and they said, "Go try that stuff in the medicine cabinet" or something like that. Is that right?

It didn't help your fever because it was the wrong kind of medicine for that. The medicine they told you to use was for stomach aches. Is that right?
