I woke up around 3 a.m. on Saturday morning so sick that it scared me. I was coughing continuously and couldn't breathe for coughing which led to vomiting and feeling like I was going to pass out. Miserable! I hung in there until this morning then went to Urgent Care on the advice of my pharmacist, who also said it sounded a lot like...whooping cough!! Whoa, wait, I thought had to do with kids and has been off the worry radar for a whole bunch of years! So I was tested for Covid, Flu, some other SARS somethings and Whooping Cough, along with 2 chest xrays. Negative on flu, Covid, and other SARS stuff. Won't know about the the Whooping Cough thing for 2 to 3 days. Oh, and I don't have pneumonia either, but I do have acute bronchitis. So the raising of 3 kittens just became a little bit more challenging.
