Last week, I caught a bad flu. I had a very bad headache and felt weak. I have not been sick like this for long. I have no prvilige to sick because I have to take care of my two daughters. However, I really sick, lying on bed for couple of days.
As a single father, who will take care of me when I am sick? Amy is only 6 years old. She could fetch a cup of water for me. Sarah is too busy for her school work. She cooked once for me when I got sick the first day. She usually came to home too late.
Although I was sick, I was still sending my two daughters to school in the morning. I could still drive. That is much better in the US because I can drive. If it is in China, I might need to ride my bike to send kids to their school. I may not have the strength to ride a bicycle.
Finally, I got recovered. Although I am still weak (compared to my strength before the sickness), I can do all the things by myself. I can cook, take Amy for skating, swimming, etc. I will be moving to the mid-west in couple of weeks. I did not feel too excited about the moving even though the job offer is more than I expected.
