I got cough, I need cake.

[marydell]

I'm on my 4th day of prednisone because of a flu-related asthma flareup, complete with constant coughing from hell. So I figured screw it, I'm having a piece of chocolate cake, what are my allergies going to do about it with prednisone crushing my entire immune response? Yay, chocolate cake. Charlie, (who is not sick) apparently noticed, however, because at bedtime he put on his best wheedling voice and said "I need cake!" and when I said no he didn't he said "I got cough! I need cake!"

Ugh, feel better soon!

(SteelyKid has also been known to deploy, "I'm a little bit sick, I need ____" as a wheedle. Hee!)

Hey, as arguments go...

I was pretty much using the same logic in granting myself cake, just not saying it out loud.

*giggles* Oh, little child logic.

Reasoning from cause to effect! You should be very proud. :-) (Also: feel better soon!)

Oh, I hope you feel better soon. I am in the same boat of hellcough, though I am high as a kite on cough syrup instead of prednisoned.

Oh dear. Get well soon!
