The plan was to go to bed earlier last night so that I wouldn’t get sick with all the stress and germs. That didn’t work out so well. Between Zach and my coughing, nobody got good solid sleep. This morning I called my cousin who is here in town and asked if he knew of anybody he could recommend that is on this side of town, and he could. I called and Zach had his appointment around noon, and I have one about 5pm tonight, after Zane’s ST.
Since Zach wasn’t sure he would be up to driving to the Dr, and it was really neccessary, I couldn’t go to school today (and really, really glad I made the decision not to go because I feel a whole lot crappier now than I did when I made the call), so Zane couldn’t go to school. I went quickly from a slightly annoying cough yesterday to a full blown, really painful cough today. Zach has water on his ears, bronchitis, and phareng… no idea how to spell it, but the root word means throat, so I assume it is the latin term for “really sore/irritate/red throat”. He now has antibiotics, which prompted me to just go on in since there is a high chance I have the same thing and have NO desire for ear problems or 6+ days of fever.
In the “good news” department, Dad came home today. Wonderful!
eta: both Zach and I have meds now. I am considered contageous for another 24 hours, so no school tomorrow either.
You poor people! I hope you don’t get really sick. Yikes!
I’m very glad to hear about your Dad! More thoughts for his continued recovery.
