My daughter is sick, she started throwing up late last night, has fever, chills, goopy nose, sneezing, and coughing. This is not why I'm annoyed, though.
She doesn't remember to cover her coughs and sneezes! She's eight years old, and you'd think after being reminded EVERY SINGLE TIME for the past six years to cover, she still does it only about 50% of the time. She "forgets." ARRGH!!!
Because of my compromised immune system, when she brings home a virus from school and I catch it from her, I get knocked down for WEEKS. More often than not, it turns into bronchitis and lately, pneumonia. I've lost months being horribly sick every year the past 3.5 years.
I still want to comfort her, and realize there is risk catching it anyway. But last night she coughed right in my face while I was holding her after she threw up. And this morning she just sneezed twice and "forgot" again. I'm SO mad and upset!
Thanks for listening; I don't know what else I can do but rant right now.
