A Man Cold

[poky]

I love Nick Frost. Thankfully, DH is more of the stoic type when it comes to being sick. He complains, but he doesn't expect to be coddled. I'm the one more like Nick in the video. Mom totally babied us when we were sick, and I never grew out of expecting/appreciating that (though it also means I'm good at doing the waiting on when called to, too).

oh - my husband is sooooooooooooo like this. it infuritates me that we're $150K in debt for him to be a doctor, yet the littlest case of the sniffles is classified as a "flu". No matter what his ailment, his treatment is to put on several layers of clothing, wear a hat (which he calls a topee -- Gujarati word for hat), and bury himself under several layers of blankets to "sweat it out".

Quinn has inherited his father's version of treating a cold.



but I digress ... clearly a hotbutton issue for me.

Re: A Man Cold

Love it, love it, love it! That is seriously my husband. On Thanksgiving day DH had the "flu" (secret code for a cold) and slept/watched TV the entire day. Miraculously he was able to drag himself from his death bed to eat the traditional huge meal.
