Time for sickness

Dad and mom came back from their trip with bouts of coughing, aching joints and fatigue. After a week, the coughing was passed over to yours truly. It started out as a fever, then came the sore throat (actually more like a sore uvula). Now, this has developed into a whooping cough and slight flu for me. I asked my sister if I was a disturbance last night. Apparently not to her, just to myself. I kept waking up every 30 minutes to get out a round of successive coughs. It wasn't a good night's sleep. I expect more of this tonight. I think that the apple cider vinegar that I'm taking is helping with the sore throat / uvula, though. Fingers crossed that the itchy throat stops acting up soon.
