Nightmares

I’m ill! I've been awake all night. My throat seems to be closing up, my nose is running, I’m feeling stiff all over, I’ve got a splitting headache and running a high temperature. Graham has moved into Kristy’s room and I will try to stay in isolation from the family.

Graham's going to call the doctor this morning, I’ve stocked up with water and paracetemol. There’s no-one who we can send the kids to – who knows if they are free from the virus?

Graham and I have been talking through the door and we’ll use the mobile phone from now on. According to the news the virus will affect my breathing and will reach it’s peak between 2 – 4 days from the first symptoms. I’m going to miss Kirsty’s funeral.
