On the Mend? Hack Hack COUGH

[puppetmaker]

Every time I think that I am on the path to recovery, this virus seems to take hold again. Same thing with Caroline. She is home today because last night she was coughing hard enough to toss her cookies or in this case some water that was in her tummy still. Her fever is back but not as bad as before. My temperature keeps fluctuating too. But there is not much we can do because it is a virus and we have to let it run its course. I'm tired of coughing and not being able to catch my breath. So I am hoping that this will be over soon.

Now that we have our heat on, the cats have rediscovered the heating vent at the back of the couch. They will stretch themselves as long as they can and snooze. They are very happy cats right now. Fortunately we have enough couch space for all the cats to have their cat naps.

I did pretty well at bowling last night. I carried the team in the first game and really helped the other two games. I shot a 171, 184, and a 153 with a 143 average. Which means that my average will probably climb a couple of points by next week. Peter then went onto do well in his next league so it was a good night of bowling for the David Family.

Peter stayed up with Caroline last night because of the coughing. I sent him up to bed about 6:30 this morning and I honestly don't expect to see him much before noon today. Right now she is snuggling up against me.

I am grateful for anything that can keep me from coughing.

Have you guys tried Delsym? Truly it is the only thing I have ever found that seems to work on this bunch. (and back when Xander would get sick often and badly always with a cough that had teachers sending notes (or him) home it would keep the cough pretty much away through school) Once in a while it isn't quite enough but most times I find it really does help, the others we add in riccola cough drops or something.
Just trying to help sweetie {{{hugs}}} feel better soon
