2018!

Our last day this year did not start well. Charlie was still ill. His fever started on Christmas Eve and we were getting worried. He has never been sick for so many days before. We were thinking about taking him to a doctor but after talking to his daycare mom we understood that many of the children here who goes to daycare mom had been sick from hand, foot and mouth disease (höstblåsor). They have had the exact symptoms as Charlie; fever that goes up and down. No fever in the morning but it started at noon every day. Some of the children had been sick for 2 weeks! Yesterday we where hoping and praying that it would be no more fever and finally it turned!! We could enjoy a dinner together and Charlie could enjoy some early fireworks through our living room windows. He had no fever today either but his energy levels goes up and down which is perfectly normal after having fever for so many days! 

Today we went for a walk in the forest, Charlie and Mattias played some table tennis on the dinner table and we also did yoga. I also did day 36 of my 40 days of meditation! 

Hopefully Charlie will have regained his energy in a day or two so we can see some other people :) 

I boost myself with healthy stuff like apples (great virus fighters), carrots (rich in betacaroten, also good for your immune system), fresh ginger and turmeric. I don't wish to experience what Charlie has been through. 

Cheers with a juice!
