Oh my, do I not want to ever experience THAT again! As I sit here and type this I am just recovering from the flu. It started off as a sore throat, a cold, the usual sort of thing that you'd expect from this time of year. Ethan had brought it home from nursery and the day he did, he spent the night burning, too hot to touch in our bed, bless him. Luckily he'd had the flu jab. They say it's good that they pick up things from nursery and such, to build their immune system. But it's no good for those they pass it on to, including our four and half month old Logan.
I picked it up last Thursday and then by Wednesday just gone it turned nasty - really really nasty. And I knew it was more than just a head cold. I requested anti-sickness tablets and tablets for a sinus infection from my doctor and sent myself off to bed (something I NEVER normally do). I spent three days in my pyjama's, sleeping most of the day and feeling like I was on deaths-door (yeah it was that bad) the rest of the time.
I had to visit the out of hours doctor and even went for a vision test this morning as I stopped being able to see properly. I now think my vision was thrown off due to my sinuses being so blocked. Luckily I was well enough to actually leave the house today, because the last couple of days I've been completely bedridden and my amazing Husband, who's also been sick himself, has been taking care of us. Logan seems to be on the mend, making little improvements bless him, but it's been horrible for him and heartbreaking to watch him so poorly. I've started feeling somewhat better and I can't tell you how grateful I am to be feeling even remotely a bit more well. I've never experienced anything like that flu and I never want to again!
