Thoughts from the Bed
Posted by Stephen Lowe in sick
I rarely get sick but when I do, it's generally BAD. I might get the occasional cold and sore throat but I can count on one hand the number of times that I've had to stay out of work for sickness in the last 10 years. After spending most of the day yesterday in the bed feeling terrible, I went to the doctor today and tested positive for Flu. Now I have some drugs and still feel like crap. Hopefully I'll be feeling better by tomorrow.
I do have the best wife in the world helping me get through it though. She does such a great job taking care of me and making sure I've got whatever I need to be comfortable. The worst part of being sick is not being able to hug her. Heck, I'm in quarantine, she's sleeping in the guest bedroom. I'm praying for her because my son is starting to show signs of coming down with this too. I really hope he doesn't get sick with this, I haven't felt this bad since I had mono when I was a teenager. He goes to the doctor in the morning, hopefully I'll be back to some kind of usefulness to help her out if he does get sick.
On Demand is a great thing to have if you are in the bed non-stop. There's all kinds of good stuff on TV, just maybe not when you are there to watch it.
