Our son has had a fever for the last couple of days, which has left him a bit lethargic and not as lively as he usually is. It's horrible to watch, to be honest, and I feel so sorry for him.
My wife took him to the doctor, but it didn't really help – he just said that he had a fever, but it wasn't flu. Well, I could have told you he had a fever! Apparently, the flu jabs aren't ready yet, which I find extraordinary. The whole affair isn't helped by the fact that I spend most of my days surrounded by people coughing and sneezing, whether on the train or in the office. Some people seem to think that going to work when they're sick shows how dedicated they are to their jobs. It doesn't, it just shows that you have no common sense and don't give a toss who you pass your germs on to. Stay at home.
As for my son, he seems better today – his temperature has come down and he's been trying to go outside and run around, which is a great sign. Hopefully he'll be back to his boisterous self very soon.
