DH normally enjoys robust good health-never catches colds or bugs like the rest of us. (How I envy his constitution!) Not this week, however, as he has been struck down with what appears to be flu. Olympic standard coughing, nausea, sore throat and head and a spectacular temp of 40.4 with associated chills have left him wiped out. I do feel sorry for him as he’s just not used to dealing with ill health but oh dear, he’s not the easiest patient. He’s now on the mend as he’s getting grumpy but I’m having to count to ten quite often! Hope he’s more amenable tomorrow.
