Earlier today, we went to the hospital for Rey’s doctor appointment. For the past week, Rey has been having cough, sneezes, and mild fever. We usually let the illness on its own for three days along with some paracetamol and vitamins since that’s how virus usually works. The illness, however, stuck for more than three days, so we decided to check it with the doctor.
What we didn’t predict was Rey seeing the doctor appointment as an opportunity to dress up.
Flower sunglasses, check. Pretty blue dress, check. Unicorn sling bag, check.
Sometimes I wonder about children’s ability to endure illness.
