When it rains, it pours

Ok, well life isn't all that bad. But it is a rather depressing month I must say, on all fronts.

This week, both girls are sick - fever, congested cough and runny nose. It all started with Angeline, who screams like a piglet in an abattoir whenever she takes her meds. So, as you can guess, she never quite takes the full dosage and so never gets fully well.

It's finally passed on to Ally.

The husband is overseas, so it's a bit of a horrid situation now. Everything comes to a standstill, as the week revolves around paediatric visits (usually about 2 hours each time) , nebuliser routines, medicine routines, screaming routines. Waking up in the middle of the night to feel for fevers, waking them up to do their nebulisers and then trying to get them back to sleep.

I hope all gets better fast. There are other things as well, that make me just want to write off this month and start afresh in April.
