Health Update 9.30.07
Posted September 30th, 2007 by Mom |
I am getting better. B told me to stay home from church this morning. No doubt due to the icky sound of my cough and the fact that I get winded easily and have to rest to catch my breath. However, the cough is productive and I am feeling better. I think my fever finally broke Friday afternoon. My medicines are making me drowsy, but as long as they are helping me get better, I will continue to take them.
B is fighting a cold as well. I don’t think it is the same one that I have had. His seems to be more allergy related from what I can tell, however, he might disagree. His cough sounds dry, but not the “barking” kind. He is very susceptible to a cough during the change of seasons. Around 2.30 this morning B was in the living room watching television and I was trying to get to sleep. His cough was bothering me so I got up out of bed and found some prescription cough pills of his from last time he was sick and brought them to him along with some Halls cough drops.
This morning B asked me what kind of Halls I brought him and I told him I thought they were “tropical or something like that. I liked them.” B replied that they were the nastiest cough drops he had ever tasted. Well then B - go to the doctor and find something that works or tastes better! In the middle of the night I don’t care what they taste like as long as the kids aren’t awakened unnecessarily.
I hope B can get some rest and get to feeling better this evening while the kids and I are at church for choir. Even though I don’t feel great, I still need to teach my 3 year old choir. I would try to get a substitute, but I have already unsuccessfully tried to get a substitute for one of the ladies that I teach with whom will be out tonight. Another teacher will be late. The kids need me and I know that they need consistency at this age.
Also, FYI - C still hasn’t lost his bottom tooth that is loose. Every time I look at C’s mouth, that tooth is at a different angle. I can’t believe it has hung on this long being loose. A couple of weeks ago we bought C a little tooth pillow with a pouch for putting his lost teeth into for the tooth fairy. I’ll keep you posted when he loses the tooth.
