So....my three year old had the flu and a sinus infection last week. Both my husband and I were sick as well. We went to the doc and I had a sinus infection and he had bronchitis. Then Sunday night my husband came down with the flu. He called out sick from work on Monday and spent the day sleeping on the couch. Now last night I came down with the same flu and was up half the night throwing up. My husband said he felt better and went to work leaving me at home to cate for our 3 year old. Why is it that when he is sick he can lay on the couch and sleep but when I am sick I do not get the same?
