We have a house of 'coughing' right now. What a pain. Last weekend poor Peter was just moaning all day long. It was so sad and pathetic! He wouldn't sleep in his bed, only when Devin or I was holding him. Poor fellow. We all have coughs still, but we're doing much better. Peter is smiling again. I took the two of us in to the health unit yesterday, and they wanted to prescribe antibiotics! Why, though? All we have is a little cough. It just made me think about how we are so overdrugged in our society. There's a pill or a syrup for everything, and antibiotics cure everything else...right? Whatever happened to letting people get through sicknesses so they could have a better immune system? Instead, we down antibiotics daily and end up with things like MRSA. Oh well. I didn't go to medical school. I'm a psychotic musician instead. :)
So, Josh came home from school, and I just ached all over. My head was pounding, my eyes burning, every joint hurt, I had a fever of about 103... So I laid down on the ground for a moment. Andrew came over and told me it was time to wake up, that it was morning! Then, Josh stepped over me and asked, "Mom! What are you doing?" I told him that I was really sick and needed to lie down for a moment. He promptly said, "Well, what about my chocolate pudding??" Thanks for your concern.
