Sweet Again: The Thrush, The Breakup, and the Smoothie Jar

Prologue

When Jasmine left her ex’s apartment for the last time, she didn’t just leave behind photos, clothes, and five awkward years. She left behind the version of herself that didn’t listen to her own body. The one who waited for permission to rest. To heal. To put herself first.

A month later, when she caught a respiratory infection and ended up on Amoxicillin, she thought: Of course. One more thing to clean up.

But what came next wasn’t just about a pill or an infection. It was about starting over—from the inside out.

A Little Too Clean: The Amoxicillin Story

Prologue

People think healing is simple: take the pill, feel better, move on. But the body is a complicated place. It keeps secrets, remembers things, reacts in ways we don’t always expect.

A quick swab, a gentle nod from the doctor, and she was handed a prescription: Amoxicillin—a word she had seen before, but never thought twice about.

Little did she know, this small white capsule would teach her an unexpected lesson—not just about her body, but about balance, caution, and the strange ways medicine gives and takes.
