I have been sick all week with a very bad case of bronchitis. It started as a little cold last week, a sore throat one day, an ear ache the next, but by last Saturday, it was a full-blown all out cold (now bronchitis). I went to work on Monday, but was miserable and came home about an hour early. I went straight to bed, and was soon joined by Tabitha and Sasha, who LOVE it when meowmie is home and in bed. And that is where we have been most of the week, except when I had to venture out for medicine and chest x-rays (to rule out pneumonia). And they were right there with me, Tabitha curled on the pillow next to me and Sasha laying in the curve of my knees! I didn't complain! When I would need a change of scenery and go downstairs to lay on the couch, here they would come. Sasha would take up her usual position in "her" chair (that she sometime allows me to sit in) and Tabitha would lay on the back of the couch or on my tummy, purring away. Such great nurses! I am so lucky! They have made me feel better with all of their purring and comfort! Okay, so maybe the antibiotics and cough medicine have had something to do with it... but I would recommend cuddly cat nurses to any one else who is sick! They work miracles!
