"I've Fallen and I can't Get Up" or Men are No Help!

I have caught a bug or something that has made me pretty sick this week.  So, at 4 am I go downstairs to get a drink of water.  Walk into the family room with my water and start profusely sweating and faint dead out.  Well, I come to but was too weak to get up, so I start to yell "help"....no stirring from upstairs...So, I crawl into the bathroom and try to pull myself up to the sink to put cold water on my face and faint dead out again....So, here I am, laying half in the bathroom and half in the foyer, sweating so bad that when I come to my face is laying in sweat!  Once again I start with the "help"; no response again......So I just laid in the floor for about 1/2 an hour and was finally able to get to my feet, splash water on my face and go back to bed....MEN!!  But, in all fairness to the husband, he told me he would get me a whistle to wear while I am sick!!!!

  1. Oh my goodness. I hope you are feeling better. Those symptoms sure sound like AGW, the new virus everyone is concerned about. From what I understand Acute Grand-baby Withdrawal comes on abruptly and usually follows a recent visit with the little ones. I recently experienced a double, back to back outbreak. Fortunately with regular doses of Skype and Facetime, my recovery is progressing.
