So hubby and I will be celebrating our first year marriage anniversary in March! Last year hubby and I made it without getting crazy sickies but this year I was hit 1st and he was hit second and ended up with bronchitis.
Boy was this fun! Lol, I love my husband immensely but it is something else when the men get sick. I mean I was still recovering from having the flu and I was taking care of him, cooking, disinfecting, walking the dog, coming to work , etc. He was off work for like 4 days and then the weekend hit so he had like 6 days off, lol I remember that Sunday before he was set to go back to work, he told me how exhausted he was all day and how all he wanted to do was stay in bed and go in and out of sleep. I totally understand how being sick can take so much out of you and leave you feeling drained, but it cracked me up because all day Saturday he had been in bed too. I burst out laughing and told him Babe, you haven't done squat all week, what are you so tired of? Haha we both laughed but I told him I understood and wanted him to be fully recovered so of course go ahead and rest but man oh man it took me two full weeks to fully recover because I had to jump into Doctor Wifey mode. I am getting a cool date night this weekend because of my tremendous care taking skills!
Share your first encounters with your partner being sick.
