I practically never get sick. In the four years I've been married I can count on less than a whole hand how many times I've felt really down in the dumps. Two of those times are today, and about 3 weeks ago when we all had something icky.
I didn't ever realize how healthy I was until I married my sweetheart, who, bless his heart, gets sick probably 6 times a year. And I never do anything different around him, and I never catch whatever he's got. In October 2009, hubby got the swine flu. I didn't even catch the sniffles.
So far, it seems that Gracie has been blessed with my she-lion immune system that catches and kills anything within arms length. Her daddy got sick the week she was born, being a new and excited father he couldn't resist but to still hold her and love on her. And being the admiring wife of that new daddy, I couldn't resist how cute the daddy daughter pair were, so I didn't intervene. Gracie was fine, she didn't get sick. Daddy got sick again a few months later. Again we didn't do anything different, and neither of us she-lions were slowed down.
At 5 and 1/2 months Gracie picked something up from somewhere else, and much to my dismay, she got her mommy sick (and to no one's surprise mommy got daddy sick too).
And now. I don't know where it came from, but I want it to go away. I feel absolutely disgusting. I ran only 2.5 miles last evening and hurt more than I ever have after much lengthier and more strenuous workouts. Then I couldn't sleep all night either because my screaming legs woke me up or because I felt like hurling.
I'd take a bad cold over a nauseous tummy any day.
Please please she-lion, come back!

YUCK! Im sorry you got sick. I have been singing my own special song this year to the tune of "Rain Rain Go Away". "Sick sick go away, do not come another day, all the Goss's want to play so we can go outside all day"
I feel the same as you, but this year Josie has gotten me sick about 4-5 times. It drives me crazy.
FEEL BETTER SOON!!!!
