I'm currently doing my best impression of a Consumptive!Heroine.
*cough, cough*, Heathcliff.. ahhh.
It made mother's day a bit of a downer, as everytime I coughed it felt like someone was driving nails into my head, and I also was left feeling like someone had punched me in the sternum.
Nonetheless I visited my grandmother who plied us with brown water she swears was coffee, and spent quality time with my mom, inbetween bouts of hacking my lungs up.
The upside though was my children were wonderful, and gave me cards that made me cry, and gave me hugs and kisses every couple of minutes saying Happy Mother's Day. So despite my overwhelming sickliness I considered it an excellent day.
