Bad day

5 of January 2011 (4 weeks 5 days)

Hi Little Bean,                          

Today, you came to school with me. It was our first day and it was not our best day. Mommy had a huge headache in the morning and with the headache came nausea. We were supposed to have two classes today. One at 8h30 am to 11h30 am and the other one from 4 pm to 7pm. We would have had a long break…Mommy wasn’t feeling too good though, the teacher was talking and I couldn’t even concentrate, I just wanted to vomit. At the break, so after 1 hour of class, we came home. I didn’t know how we would make it home Little Bean…I was weak, pale, sick and nauseous. On my way out of class I vomited a lot. I didn’t even feel better. 

The ride home was long…we have to take the subway in two different directions and then the bus for 40 minutes…it was so long. We were fine on the subway but I lost it in the bus. I was sure that I would vomit again, so I got off and walked for a while. It didn’t help. I finally got home and grandma was there. I just went to the bathroom and straight to bed. We took a one hour nap. I woke up to a grumbling stomach and ate a sandwich. I was fine after. Maybe we were just hungry or tired? I don’t know Little Bean but we ended up skipping that last class. 

Today was just not a great day, I wonder if it will always be like today, if every morning will hurt like this. I hope not. I just won’t be able to make it to school anymore. I’ll get a good night of sleep today and see how I feel tomorrow for class.

Take care of yourself Little Bean,

We love you,

Mommy
