of being sick and tired, you know? I know no one cares what you had for lunch or whether you have a headache, but Hi! I still have a headache. Two weeks and five different, increasingly toxic treatments later.
Sometime on Saturday I got to the point where I just wanted to cling to my children and hope that their goodness and sweetness would somehow cure me. It was probably a drug-induced delirium, but I really started to believe in this theory. You know how sometimes little kids just need you to pick them up and hold them to make everything all better? Couldn’t that flow in the other direction too?
By last night, I was feeling just the tiniest bit better. Here’s hoping.

So sorry you are not feeling any better
I won’t bore you with any headache advice, (I’m sure you’ve heard just about anything) but I will send a hug. From one mom to another, take some time to take care of yourself.
I care! I know how much it sucks when it goes on and on and on. Hoping this resolves soon!
Yuck, sorry. I and my sinus headache feel your pain.
Headache, headache, go away, come again another day (oh wait, don’t come back at all – some children’s rhymes don’t update so well). It’s high time that headache went away. I hope it does soon!
Catherine, I’m so sorry to hear you are still not feeling well. I can’t imagine a headache for that long!!!! I agree, sometimes a hug would be nice too. So…. I’m sending a hug your way.
Feel better soon.
You poor girl!!! Have you tried acupuncture?
I hope you’re feeling much better by now. And yes, I believe that some of that sweet goodness from your children can help to heal!
