My Voice Has been Muted!

You wanna look at my What?
I haven't been feeling too great since Friday.

You know, the usual cold and flu symptoms: sore throat, headache, tight chest, phlegm, post-nasal drip, etc. Oh I know, it all sounds soooo sexy.

Yesterday my voice started croaking and when I woke up this morning, it was completely muted with the occassional froggie squeak.

I feel I have to shout just to get the smallest of whispers out and it takes a lot of energy.

I'm fucking exhausted and I can't shout at the kids, what a bummer!

Laryngitis sucks!

At Home with a Sick Kaylin


Got the dreaded call from the girl's nursery school this morning.  "You little on is running a temperature and is miserable".

Kaylin has a temperature of 39 degrees C and it very lethargic and her eyes are swollen.  We got an appointment with our GP almost immediately and because she has such a high temperature, shows us that she has some sort of infection.  The doc gave her a thorough check and her ears are clear, her throat is fine, her nose is runny and blockend she's sneezing a lot.  The doc says it could be a combination of her allergies and an infection.

She's on antibiotics and I have given her Celestimine for her allergies...doesn't seem to get her down much as she's up and dancing to Hi-5 at the moment.  What will I do to get her to rest??

Lets hope all the meds start to work soon.  Until then I'm at home with her and if I do get her to rest I can watch my episode 3 and 4 of Season 6 Grey's Anatomy.
