Illness

Friday April 10, 2026

Sick kid still wails.

Daycare has struck. Or something like daycare, at least. Lindsay started feeling crappy on Friday. On Sunday, she tested positive for the flu, so we had to skip Easter at my mom’s in Hingham. Desmond had a fever off and on throughout the week, spiking at 102.4º. Lindsay stayed home Monday and Tuesday. Desmond stayed home from daycare Tuesday through Thursday. I will refrain from sharing the graphic details of what began happening in my gastrointestinal tract on Tuesday.

It is not a good week for a newsletter.
