症 - Zheng4 - Disease

Jenny has been sick for almost a week with the most horrible cold ever: it started with a slight sore throat, then quickly exploded into full-on sickness including 24×7 coughing, so much coughing that it’s hard for her to sleep. She seems to now be slowly getting better, which is good, but just today I noticed that I have… a slight sore throat. VERY VERY BAD.
