Sick of it All
Kate has been perpetually sick for the last month-plus. It started out as a cold that both she and Hayley had, but Kate had a worse version of it. We had to run the humidifier at night to help her breathe and during the day we were constantly wiping her nose. Kate’s cold lasted about two weeks. She was well for about one week, then got sick again. The second time wasn’t quite as bad as the first but it was still unpleasant. Hayley showed no cold symptoms this time around.
Last week, Hayley got the sniffles and this morning, Kate woke up with a runny nose again. Argh. Thank you public school system.
The only upside to Kate being sick so much now is that she probably won’t get sick as much when SHE goes to school. For now, we’ll have to keep plenty of lotion tissues and chicken noodle soup on hand.
