I'm so sorry you're sick. It's just rotten timing. And, yes, I get more depressed when I'm sick. It feels very lonely to me. But I know that's from when I was a kid. I'm not sure if my mother was a bit germophobic or if she didn't know at all how to nurture, but she'd always send me off to my room and make me stay there until I was well. She'd hardly come in at all and she'd never touch me. Most of the time I'd try very hard not to let on I was sick.
But I'm not scared of germs, so I'll keep you company in the infirmary as much as you want. We can play games, or listen to music, or I can read you a book. We can just sit quietly, if that's what you want. But I'll stay right there beside you for as long as you want me.
