We Are All Sick

It's official, I finally caught it! I thought I was so strong that despite my two 'boys' having cold and cough for three weeks, I was still standing tall and strong till Saturday. We even attended a birthday party of a girlfriend's son Saturday afternoon, then I took a nap when we came home so I'll have energy to do my online work at night. Then I woke up with a sore throat and I struggled to talk audibly. Yay, I didn't have any symptoms at all. I usually have itchy throat and achy joints before a cold. Anyway, over the weekend I cleaned all the bedrooms throroughly, changed all the beddings, disinfected all area possible and put humidifiers in place. After doing home remedy for my son, yesterday I decided to take him to his doctor and found out he's got sinus infection, what a bummer! It is a bit dangerous to give cough medicine to kids these days after seeing news after news of small kids that suffered reverse reaction after taking them. Anyway, I will skip all his activities for today until he gets really well. And hopefully we'll all get rid of this pesky virus soon.

  1. Mira, get well soon! I got sick after we came back from VT. I actually had the flu symptoms even before the trip but I insisted to Robert and Antonio that we go ahead with the trip, it's been planned for a long time. The night we're back I was sick like a dog, really awful. So I know how it is... hope you feel better soon!

  2. Oh, I hope you get better soon.

    Amazingly, if one gets sick in our house, it just loops around. Haaaay, that's what the cold season brings, the name itself. But none of us is yet, knock on the wood. I do run the humidifier though at night.

    I hope you and the family feel better soon.

    Grab some warm soup. Hmm, I'm thinking tinolang manok :)

  3. I hope you all feeling better soon. I was sick 2 weeks ago and it's awful. I catch from hubby, but not the same I had that he got. Glad andrew didn't catch anything from us. Drink green tea with lemon and honey. I don't take medicine the whole time I have cold. I just take plenty of rest and sleep a lot. tc both. We are just take it easy today, not even watching news or any movie. We have andrew play the kids in our neighbor in the yard while kenny watching them.
