Can't do Christmas this year
Can't do Christmas this yearOn the 8th Dec I picked up a flu like virus which besides flu like gave me a tender tummy. I had to go to my GP a week ago and was put on antibiotics for bronchitis. Trust me to get side effects! After a couple of days I had thrush in my mouth and an an awful episode of not being to leave the loo. Antibiotics are now changed but feel as though I have been used as a punch bag and eat just because I have to.
My sister who comes to me for Christmas dinner has the same virus and can't face food. We have decided that we will give Christmas a miss and enjoy the food at a later date. Maybe New Year. I hope other Laners escape this bug which is spreading around and seems to go on forever. Things can only get better!! I am now a widow and live with my memories.
Re: Can't do Christmas this yearOh no June, so sorry you are so poorly I hope you enjoy your late Christmas when it comes!

Re: Can't do Christmas this year what an awful time to get a tummy bug. I hope you both get well soon and can enjoy your delayed Christmas dinner
Re: Can't do Christmas this yearOh June.
What a shame. But to be honest, it is just another day, for those of us without the love of our lives, to get through. I find it very hard going. Head down and get through it Much love, I hope you feel better soon. http://www.busheyk9.co.uk

Get well soon, and your sister also.
This has been a bitter-sweet Christmas for me, with OH being so very ill. One wonders.... Re: Can't do Christmas this yearDear June - hope you have got over your tummy bug.
Re: Can't do Christmas this year
Much better but still not completely gone. Whatever we had really knocked the stuffing from us. Each day I look forward to tomorrow. I am now a widow and live with my memories.
Re: Can't do Christmas this yearOh June, I know just how you feel. I started with a sickness (and other end )bug on the Saturday night before Christmas. Being sick every hour throughout the night and then by hubbie started early hours of the morning. For 3 days we just about managed to get up to take the dog out and sort out the chickens before we were worn out and had to have another sleep. Had to cancel my mum and dad coming Christmas day and we hardly ate anything for about 3 or 4 days. Finally got a bit of energy back the following Saturday in time to come back into work yesterday. Not the best Christmas ever but I certainly don't need a New Year diet

Re: Can't do Christmas this yearHope you are on the road to recovery Kath. People are still feeling very poorly with it here and it seemed to go on forever. My bronchitis soon cleared up but even now the mouth thrush from the first lot of antibiotics has not gone completely. We all need a bit of sunshine to lift our spirits. Take care

We have all had bugs, cold, funny tummy etc from which Clare is still suffering with a really hacking cough 3 weeks down the line. Got to admit though, says I who at this moment.........is touching the wooden desk, that I got over it all very quickly compared to some.
I took honey and lemon for the cough I had which I like anyway and it was very soothing for my sore throat too, also have started taking Turmeric some weeks back in capsule form, so not sure if that has anything to do with it not lasting long. Who knows, eh? |
