Flu
[email protected]
We're just getting over a particularly nasty strain of flu. Beth got it,
then Julian, then me. Julian got the sickest, with a fever of 103.5 at one
point. Pain in the butt, unpleasant, but...
Julian is 15, and pretty independent. One of the sweetest things this week
has been that I got to take care of this very big boy. I brought him juice and
tasty foods to nibble on, medicine and the tv remote. I covered him up in a
comforter, and took his temp and brought him a cool washcloth. When he was
feeling particularly awful, he snuggled into me on the couch and fell asleep.
It's hard when your kid feels so sick, but so nice to be able to take care
of him.
