telephone doctor

Staying at home for three days,  cough is horrible wake in the morning the son is up again, before dawn. He makes the morning drink, it is already finished by the bedside growing cold.
Get the second cup, this is warm now, and the head is spinning and it is cold, even though the room is warm.
This is no good, it must be the continued activity of some virus.
It does not affect the son.
That is good, it is good that he is immune to other things other than criticism.
The wife is still in bed, but she is not coughing either.
Take the coffee back to bed.
shake and shiver
Wait for the sound of slamming doors to announce that the son has gone.
Gone to school.
Get up, go to the bathroom, have a shower, hot, drive away the bone's cold.
Then, it is eight, call the doctor for the results.
The results are not ready yet, the nurse says the doctor will call back.
Lie down on the couch in the living room.
Fall asleep.
Until the telephone sounds.
It is the doctor.
She says that there is are not as many red blood cells as there could be.
The cholesterin is problematic but improved.
The results for the whooping cough are not in.

Stay in bed.
Call back on friday.
Wait for criticism from the wife.
Wait to hear about male laziness.
But this does not happen, a small mercy.
