In Sickness and In Health

by mathe | Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008 at 3:52 pm | Life as I See it |

Oh, dear! Our entire family has been invaded by the flu bug and now, we are all cooped up in the house. Not much writing for me these days and I hope you will all understand why.


It was my big boy who complained of muscle pain and was coughing during the weekend. Being asthmatic, it was him who was hit first. On Monday, I kept him at home but let the younger one go to school. Only to be summoned from work by midday to take him home as he had been sick. He was covered with his own vomit when I collected him. Bless him!

Now, it’s my hubby and myself who are feeling a bit under the weather. We are not allowing the virus to have us, though. We are consuming large quantities of fruits, soups and fluids. By the way, sore throat gets easily soothed with freshly-squeezed lemon and honey. I hope you won’t have to try it but if you do, you’ll see that it really works.

So much about this, I have to retire to bed, where my little boy is waiting for me. The hubby is sleeping with the bigger one in the boys’ room while I keep vigil with the younger one in our room.

Family. In sickness and in health. As long as we are together, even in sickness, we’ll all be fine.

Bye!
