Spasmotic coughing and other fun.
I think my entire family is immunocompromised.
We now all have pink eye….more like "crusty, goopy, swollen, red eye". I am on day two of little or no sleep.
And, yes, Mia is sick again. With pink eye and gobs of snot. And cranky as hell. I haven’t slept in 2 nights. She wants to be bolt upright so she can breath past the snot, which makes horizontal sleep impossible. Ditto for nursing.
Did I mention the coughing? No? Oh, well, let me mention it then. It sounds like a TB ward here. It is the "cough ’til you barf" marathon here, with 3 out of 4 kids sick with it. Add to that the groaning I hear Bill doing…..have you ever tried to sneeze and cough with broken ribs? Me neither, but Bill tells me it sucks.
It has been one long winter.
Thank you kitten. I am glad yo came here too! Yes, the boys keep us running. No sanity here, either.
I went to your blog. It is wonderful! Do you mind if I add it to me blog roll?
I am guessing coughing with broken ribs is similar on the pain scale to sneezing shortly after giving birth and receiving an episiotomy? Just a guess though.
I hope you all start feeling better soon. Just a few more weeks of winter and then all will be well in the world again.
Ugh, I feel for you as we have been going through the same thing this winter. I am READY for spring.
Poor Bill, I can imagine that must really hurt!
You have such a beautiful family. I dont know how I happened on your blog…I know I started by reading a post on an infertiles blog about having too many kids. But Im glad I did. I have 3 boys too…and of course, no sanity!(guess i dont have to tell you that though..lol)
