First time my wife and I fell ill since the birth of baby L. I can now imagine what horrors people have went through when they say "the whole family has been ill, it was awful."

Luckily my wife and I took turns and the little one made it through without catching our cold. It's tough enough to care for your two loved ones while you feel slightly under water yourself, I wouldn't want to know what it's like while being Really Sick myself and so is the baby.

I'm lucky that I only get sick enough to stay in bed about once every year or two. It always humbles me. All the little frustrations and tensions in my everyday-life quickly become meaningless. "I'm feel lazy to go running." "I cannot get myself to do taxes today." "I'm not really in the mood to see people." All that sounds hilarious if you just... can't.

Makes me empathize much more with the old lady in the streets and the random long-covid reply guy in the internets.
