Cough Cough Hack Sniffle Wheeeeeeze…

I’m not ignoring blogging, Oh Best Beloved. Just too sick. I acquired a nasty bug that has been most wearisome. Between the coughing, snuffles, wheezing, chills and fevers I’m not doing particularly well.

Add to that the 7-week-long toothache that hasn’t resolved (the dentists haven’t figured out yet what’s going on, as said tooth looks quite happy – but isn’t).

*sigh*

Now would be a good time for organic whiskey to make an appearance in the marketplace.

Need. Honey.  Whiskey.  Lemon Juice. Lots.

I’m going back to bed.

    Oh dear – that doesn’t sound like any fun at all! Hope you feel better soon.

    So sorry to read you’re having so much trouble with your tooth. Hope it resolves soon.

    Good luck, feel better soon.

    Hi JAS – I just read your comment on Dooce’s website RE: vaccines. There already exists in the US something exactly as you’re describing. Every dose of vaccine has I think a 75 cent fee that goes to setting up the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. There are several known, very serious, very rare side effects of vaccination. If one of those happens to your child, you can make a claim, which is evaluated by a special group of judges and if it’s deemed valid then you get financial compensation. So yes, we all pay for the care of any child who becomes injured from a vaccine.

    Thank you Jane and Kris (and others who responded privately) – I still feel lousy but not getting worse, and that’s a good thing!

    Cara – thank you! Appreciate the link, and the information. It’s exactly what I wanted to know in answer to my question.

    Looks like we’ll finally see some 60’s later this week – get better so you can get out and enjoy the heat! ;)
