So, this year started off bad. It’s been more of the same. And now The Child may be getting yet another random medical complaint. On the whole she’s very lucky. Aside from a constant barrage of colds during winter, she doesn’t get ill very often. But there was the random lump that appeared on her head when she was a few weeks old. Thankfully that disappeared on it’s own when she was about four years old. Then there was the head banging thing that started when she was six months. That’s more or less stopped now. But then there was the tiptoeing thing, with the in-turned feet that she’s got the special insoles for. And now she might be developing eczema on her tummy and back. If we’re lucky it’ll just be dry skin, exacerbated by winter. That’s what I’m hoping. Knowing our luck though it will be eczema. At least she doesn’t mind having cream slavered over her body twice a day. Of course I make sure I crank up the heating for her beforehand. Joy. I wonder how many other random things she’ll develop? Hopefully we’re done.
And I hope this awful cough she’s given me hurries up and goes away too. We’ve both been achy and spluttery for nearly a fortnight now. Not fun. Grrr.
So yeah, 2013 is really living up to expectations so far. Thank god I wasn’t expecting things to get better. Of course, it could have been the hoping thing that stuffed us. Hmmm.
