I’m not going to cry, don’t have the energy

That's rotten luck. It does leave you feeling weak as a kitten for a bit. Keep warm, rest and I hope you feel a bit better in a couple of days.

What a shame. Have a wee asap then cry your eyes out. Once you've done that, if you have the energy, think about planning a lovely family post Christmas meal. Keep the decorations up and the boxes hidden.
This too shall pass.

Wishing you a speedy recovery

And the energy for a wee

Nanagem and Poppyflower, so sorry for you both! You are allowed a moan here. Get lots of fluids and rest, and hopefully you can arrange a get together with family before the New Year.

We have a lot of flu going around here this year. We did have our shots, but doing our best to keep away from the illness.

Oh please have a good cry and release it all out of your head. I am so sorry that you are going through this. Sending love and hugs.

Poppy flower get well soon too x

Poor you take comfort in bed you may get over it swiftly. I know more people now with covid than in lockdown. Let your DH look after you and plan on a lovely family meal as soon as it's possible. In the meantime a little weep is ok you are not well x

Sorry PoppyFlower for you too I hope we don't join you after doing quite a bit of shopping.

So sorry Nanagem. That’s such bad luck.
Look after yourself.
You will see your family after its all over. It’ll feel so special when you do.

Hi Nanagem, another one here who tested positive yesterday (for the first time.). My elderly parents (who live with me) too! My body aches have eased after 48 hours but got most of the other symptoms. Just take it hour by hour, rest as much as you can,. Thinking of you.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, Nanagem.

There's not a lot I can say, except get well soon, and let your husband take good care of you. Can you decamp to the sofa and binge on some feel good TV to make you feel a bit better?

Oh what rotten luck.
My only advice is to just accept it, don’t try to fight it.
Look after yourself, drink lots, and like Yammy says, relax

Have a wee and then cry in comfort. What bad luck. We were debating last night if the family should test before the Christmas get-together. I would hate to pass it on or catch it and be laid up in someone's house.
Forget all the undone things try and relax and get better.
About 10 years ago we were wiped out with Flu all over Christmas, just couldn't be bothered with anything. We managed to stumble through New year and it was a bit better.
Forget Christmas there will be others.

I'm so sorry Nanagem, no wonder you feel like crying. I hope you'll begin to feel a little better soon and maybe have a late Christmas celebration with your family and new GD.

I am so sorry. Have a good cry if you want to.
