Part 2/14:
A significant portion of the stream was dedicated to sharing a week-long battle with severe illness, likely a flu-like crud that affected both the host and his wife. He detailed how his voice was nearly lost, and how confinement to bed lasted until midweek. The illness, compounded by Christmas preparations and family gatherings, left him drained but gradually recovering, feeling finally close to normal after a taxing week. The host expressed sympathies for viewers who might catch the same bug and acknowledged how challenging illnesses are during the holiday rush.
