Sick Kids Part II
Last weekend, Will was the sick kid. This weekend it was Madison. Saturday morning she started throwing up and spent the day doing that till about 6pm Saturday night. However, I don’t think Will and Madison had the same bug. Will had it coming out the other end. He only threw up once (the rest would be classified under spit up). She was a big girl. She didn’t freak out or anything. She just did what had to be done.
Unfortunately, when this all started Saturday morning, she threw up all over my love seat. I grabbed her and ran to the bathroom. Unfortunately, when we got in there, she threw up again. I slipped on it. To save her, I did not brace my fall. I think I bruised my tail bone and possibly had a concussion. My rear still hurts today. I can tell you exactly where my tail bone, because it hurts when I walk and sit. My whole back aches. My arms and legs ache. The back of my head still hurts too.
When I went to get out of bed this morning, I couldn’t. Bill thought he would have to plug the coffee makers in to get my rear in gear. What he didn’t understand was that I really could not get out of bed. He ended up having to help me. I ended up having to lay on my moist heating pad for about two hours. I am hoping that I can get out of bed tomorrow. Bill will be at work if I can’t. I am hoping I can get in at my chiropractor’s office.
Even though all this happen, I am in good spirits. The Packers won!!!!
Cold Central
I am so ticked that they took all the cold medicine for infants off the shelf. The reasoning is even dumber: parents were overdosing their kids. If they are overdosing on the infant stuff, what do you think is going to happen when childrens is only available. I heard that there talking about taking that off the shelf too. I have a sick kid here. He’s had a runny nose and coughing since last Wednesday. I am doing all the things I should be — vaporize, take him into the bathroom after I have made it a steambath, etc. I would just like to be able to make the kids comfortable, so he can sleep. As an adult, we take things for colds to make us less miserable. I don’t get why kids can’t.
