Sick again

Ah winter. Time for sickness. Our house has been invaded by the stomach flu. Jack has had it since yesterday. Sonia already had it although the stomach flu for her consists of vomiting once and eating a full meal with no consequences 2 hours later. When Jack seems really sick, it gives me lots of opportunity to practice being present.. it's always been an anxiety trigger for me. I can get some distance from it now although yesterday I wished for ativan. It's tough when he is a limp little guy. He is already so skinny. Luckily it's a sunny beautiful day and we live in a lovely, light filled house. We borrowed several videos and downloaded the audio of 'charlie and the chocolate factory.' We make the best of it. We created a cozy little nook for jack on the family room couch. We sit with him in between cleaning and cooking and taking care of business. It seems like he is on the mend.
