It’s been about 3 months since I went for my last run. I took some time off to heal up my knee after the 2 runs in 2 weeks, a 25km followed by a Half Marathon, the knees really took it’s toll. After I had rested I then caught a bug and was coughing quite badly. Took about a month to recover from that but finally am back to running only got 2 weeks to get up to speed for the Half Marathon. Probably will have to take it slow and aim for a 3hr finish for that.
During my sickness went to the doctor’s three to get medication. Was on MC for a while, not good as I had to wear a mask at home since I did not want to let the kids catch the bug but to no avail. My little girl started coughing and had to see the doctor then one of my helpers got it before my boy got it and finally my other helper got it, But I think all are recovering now. My little boy got it worst when the doctor examine him he had some fluid in his lungs had to use a Neubilzer or whatever it’s called, It’s one of those things that gives off steam (with medication in it) and you had to wear a mask. Little boy obviously did not like that and cried while the mask was on which was about 5 to 10 minutes every 4 hours. Luckily on his second visit his passage way cleared up and he was recovering.
My missus decided to buy the equipment, you could rent it from the hospital but we figured maybe used later and anyway a 2 day rental was actually the cost of the equipment I guess to help the kids it was shaped as a penguin.
The little “instrument of dread” which my son was not too keen on having the mask on his face !
