I spent all day Friday in bed. I missed our seeing my family and friends, who had totally arranged a lunch I could attend because I am on a very strict elimination diet to figure out what is upsetting my stomach. (I am not eating gluten, dairy, soy, sugar, corn, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, strawberries, peaches or chocolate. FYI: Eating super healthy and getting sick is not reinforcing).
Saturday evening I felt a little better. I was hungry for the first time for food I could eat (being sick and on a very strict diet is extra, extra hard). I ate the wonderful Easter dinner my husband had prepared for us and Uncle Chris.
After another rough night, Sunday morning I was not feeling well again, but some meds and more sleep made me semi-functional. I made the Man and Uncle Chris take the dogs out a lot before they left for a movie. I knew my strength was waning.
I was well cared for while I was ill.

ReplyDeletePuppers are the bestest companions when crook .... it is not uncommon when doing elimination diets to find the body detoxing at the same time and this can lead to lowered defences against infections - see it as a positive! Hope you get that day of proper fun... YAM xx
Oh dear. I am so sorry you are sick. Ma has been sick since coming home from Orlando last weekend. She cannot shake the cold she has for anything. I sure hope you feel better today. It's terrierible to be sick.

ReplyDeleteoh you poor thing! Be careful!!! Mine also started on a Thursday 2 weeks ago...it started as a cold and turned into bronchitis! I was soooooo sick! Hoping you are back to yourself soon! DakotasDen
ReplyDeleteSo sorry the flu bug got you. Some of our bipeds had it too even though they had gotten the flu mist. Some Tamiflu seemed to help a lot. Hope today is a much better day for you. Hugs.

How absolutely crappy getting the sickies on a holiday weekend. Yep eating healthy can kill you so eat some chocolate because the dark chocolate is good for you. Dark chocolate has ingredients that lower blood pressure and fight disease and is a potent antioxidant. Yep eat dark chocolate.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend
Sweet William The Scot
I hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeletehope you got checked for that Zeeka Virus - you did visit the Bahamas and it can incubate for months !
ReplyDeleteOh dear, poor Lady.
ReplyDeleteSending best wishes for a speedy recovery.
That does not sound like any fun at all. The strict diet OR the flu. Yikes. Thank goodness for doggie nurses. Feel better soon. xoxo

Yup. Being sick sucks. Hope that you're well again.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you haven't been well. We will cross our paws that you feel better soon. At least the dogs have been taking good care of you.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteOh I do hope you're feeling better today! Being sick is rough enough, but I'm on a special permanent gluten-free anti-inflammatory diet too, and I know how hard it is when you're sick. No toast, none of the usual stuff we're used to that helps us feel better...but it gets easier the longer you're on it...you find work-arounds! :)
ReplyDeleteoh that flu is Nasty...with a capital N! We hope you are feeling a lot better soon!
