Spent most of the night hanging off Miss 3 bed woken hourly to reassure her she was okay and I was just there. She allowed me to go to my bed by 3am so was granted a few hours half decent sleep.....and although the worry about her kept me awake most of the day it has worn off and now I'm just worn out.
So she has a ear infection, secondary to the nasty arse flu that has knocked her and the farmer about. Poor wee munchkin. She didn't even indicate sore ears, I was thinking more tonsillitis but then I'm not a doctor am I?
I think I may have indeed watched most of the Dora episodes ever created with my wee friend attached to my knee, arm around my neck....which has been er nice. However the constant breathing of her germs on me can't be a good thing....I'm hoping that rest and lots of Vitamin C will keep them at bay. I will not be a good patient I can assure you.
The Farmer went back to work today. So next week when all the team at his work are infected he will be Mr Popularity. He seems better but I know that he's not 100% but he can't be told.
It's been weird, no "work" all week and I've achieved NOTHING. Caring for sick family doesn't count. Anyway I've just got a FATSO DVD in the post - 21 Jump Street.....Johnny Depp fix which has to be better than Dora (sorry Miss 3).
I have to add that my heart goes out to all the parents of children with constant health issues, that require the type of care over and above anything I've had to deal with. They are troopers, wonderful human beings that deserve praise and support. God Bless them all.
