You are not a loser! You don't want to be sick just like all of us. Very normal! I do that, too. Even when my sister calls me on the phone and says that she has a stomach bug I start to feel nauseated......like I could catch it over the phone. Ha!
I know what you mean about Adam being sick a lot and worring about his job. Does he have short-term disability at work? That's what my son is on since his surgery. He is getting his full pay which is great. Another thing Adam might do is have a talk with his boss about his situation so that at least the boss will know what's going on. He may be very understanding. Do you think the throwing-up is part of the migraine?
I hope you will be able to get out of your office soon....I bet you are getting lonely. Hopefully you won't get sick and everything will be OK. Keep us posted!
