June 11: Writing Prompt #162-Take Care

When you’re unwell, do you allow others to take care of you, or do you prefer to soldier on alone? What does it take for you to ask for help?

I am fortunate enough to say that I have rarely been sick enough to really need anyone to take care of me (knock on wood), so mostly I solider on alone and prefer it that way, but if I really need help, I will take it without a fuss.  For example, if I am near my dad when a sickness hits me, I don’t hesitate to take his medical advice (being that he is a physician) and/or medicine he prescribes for me to get better. And more recently with a husband who makes a mean homemade chicken noodle soup, I may even ASK for help with some comfort food to make me feel more like myself again. J  How about you?  What are you like when you are sick?
