When our children fall sick, we, mothers, often would say “I’d rather get sick than them!” That’s what I am feeling right now. Again, my youngest is sick since Monday. I have skipped work since then. I don’t care if I’d get a memo or something (which never happened anyway ‘coz my boss is very considerate) or any of my pending tasks won’t get attended to.

One thing I know is that my daughter needs me. You all know how children get clingy to us mothers when they are not well. They don’t just need a doctor. They need us. They need our hug. Our touch.

I hope she gets well soon…
