Guest Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Hi all, I have one of those terrible head colds when you feel and look terrible. My head is ready to burst and I feel completely wrecked. I have not been in today but tomorrow we are supposed to be taking the children to the Zoo. I will be so upset if I can't go , but I know I will feel really ill all day and I don't know whether to go or not.... Advice please??? Isn't the guilt terrible?

Susan Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Oh dear! Hope you feel better soon? Who will cover you if you dont go? Will you compromising the health and safety of the group if you do? What would happen if you went and were really unable to cope? Are you well enough to go to school tomorrow if it were a normal day? If the answer to the last question is yes then you should go tomorrow, if no then stay at home and look after yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Hope you do feel better very soon - i had the same dilema last week (although no trip involved), however - same symptoms as you describe - i went into school - but had to come home early & ended up in bed for three days in total. I know we all have those terrible feelings of guilt but my experience taught me last week that your body can only take so much - it lets you know when enough is enough. Listen to your body - it will tell you what to do. Take care. xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Hope you are feeling better today Suzybell. I had a terrible cold last weekend, spent all of Saturday in bed but felt better by Sunday, I hope yours is the same 24 hr thing, if not stay in bed and take it easy.If you're not well you won't enjoy it if you do drag yourself out. Take care. Sal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Well I am still at home in bed with lap top propped up on me, temperature of 103 and head ache to show for it. The trip went without me and I can't do anything about it ... but I still feel so disappointed and fed up and depressed but worst of all guilty!!! Thank you for your well wishes- what a lovely lot you all are!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
