Viruses everywhere

Lately, I don't know what's going on, but we've been getting sick over and over again. It's happening quite often, and I'm fed up with it. Recently, I got sick with tonsillitis, my son got sick with stomach flu last week and even had a fever, and this week he has the flu. It's a chain of illnesses that is driving us crazy. Sometimes I think there are too many viruses going around, but when I analyze the situation, there's a bigger problem, which is that we're not getting all the vitamins our bodies need.

I can't say that we're eating poorly, but we're really not consuming all the vitamins our bodies need. Vegetables and fruits have become very expensive in my country, and that has led us to discard the vast majority of these foods. Drinking juice is almost a luxury now, at least for us.

And on top of that, we expose ourselves to all kinds of germs and viruses when we go outside. Obviously, we can't live locked up indoors, but without all the vitamins we need, we'll get sick more easily... Two days ago, my father-in-law took my son to the park, and he accidentally fell into a fountain. As you can imagine, that fountain wasn't exactly clean... His shoes and pants got soaked, it was a total disaster.

The thing is, it was a long way from where they were to our house, so my son spent the whole journey wet with water of dubious origin... When we got home, we gave him a bath immediately, but there was nothing we could do. He came down with a terrible fever and the flu.

For now, he's feeling a little better, but I can't help feeling sad when he gets sick. Even if it's something harmless, his little face reflects discomfort, and I don't like to see him like that. I always pamper him and give him my full attention when he's like this. I haven't slept much because the flu always makes him cough a lot, and it's been two very difficult nights.

We are waiting to see what new virus will knock on our door, since we haven't escaped from one illness after another, haha.

Aww... Same with us. 🫣 Maybe it's because of the weather as well. I hope your family gets better soon. 💖
