Wow, sorry to hear your second DD also got covid.
I can't understand hoping to get it yourself? Regardless of a week's not-as-terrible-for-most Omicron experience, there is the possibility of long covid to avoid...just read more about it yesterday. Seems like a mysterious microvascular meltdown.

Stay safe, Lighter. Do all you can to prevent contagion.

Or that's just my vote, not that I have one! I'd rather cope with vaccine after-effects than actual infection likewise. My booster was 5 months back so for me, all cautions are on until they release booster #2. They're finding that booster immunity lasts about four months, and are already releasing a second one (Pfizer, anyway) for the immunocompromised. Which I ain't, but old folks will likely be next.

Hang in there, woman. You're going through one of those trials. A sick house. Hope the girls rally soon and you take all precautions meanwhile.

Lighter - while you're still up & moving, why don't you cook & freeze servings of your & the girls favorite "comfort foods" and sick room food? Do the shopping to keep ingredients stocked, too. Maybe you don't get sick - you'll still use it to nurse the girls up. Maybe you get sick and they have to take over nursing YOU?

See where I'm going with this?

lighter:
Yup yup yup, I see, Amber.

I wish we all agreed on comfort foods. 

J said our diets seem to correlate with the level of symptoms we're experiencing, in her opinion.  L eats gluten, sugar and dairy as her major food groups.  J eats halfway healthy in her opinion.  I eat very clean.  J's lower stomach is involved this morning, btw.  She didn't know tummy involvment was a symptom. 

::shaking head::.

L's throat is still very painful...... she's coughing up lots of mucus.... threw up mucus this morning.  Last night she had a mean nose bleed, but she's always been one of those kids with nose bleeds.  My white bedding took a hit.

We're a mess.

(((((((((((Lighter))))))))))))

What an ordeal. I'm so sorry you're going through this.

My thoughts just jumped to After.
I wonder what the girls, and you, will think and feel that's different as a result of this trying experience?

Don't even bother leaving the present moment, I get it!

hugs,
Hops

sKePTiKal:
Oh my. I get it Lighter.
How're you feeling today?

Maybe with the complicated dietary needs/wants you could just make a few servings? Don't forget to mark them in the freezer -- I hear the brain fog that continues a while after is pretty bad. I've pulled out bacon grease instead of frozen broth before - sans covid. No the containers weren't marked.
