When I got home from the office today, Snookums had a fever of about 101. It had come on suddenly after 5 o'clock, the nanny said, and she was very sleepy and not interested in playing.
I breastfed her for a few minutes. And lo and behold, the redness in her eyes went away and the color returned to her cheeks. And she suddenly wanted to play. And climb up the stairs. And eat.
She still has a fever (of about 103, the last time I checked) but she already seems much, much better. It was an amazing transformation.
Maybe I should try some mother's milk the next time I'm sick.
Too bad it tastes like ass.
