Carpal Tunnel Syndrome ... Here I Come!

Way too tired to post a coherent entry today.

My step-daughter has been violently ill for a week now and I've been playing nursemaid twenty-four/seven. Last night, I massaged her head and feet for two-and-a-half hours straight, while she whimpered feverishly. Poor kid. I felt completely useless and just offered cold compresses, cold water and Tylenol periodically.

I don't know how parents of terminally ill patients cope. Seven days has been more than enough for me.

Aw, sorry to hear this. I hope she feels better soon, and that you get some rest. Poor girl - right before she starts university. So much for a great final end of summer.
