We have all been sick.
On Thursday, my baby sister decided she didn't want her immunisation. Mum had taken her in for it, but the doctor just took one look at her and said there's be no immunisation that day! The Doctor sent her and Mum in an ambulance to the hospital.
It turns out, she gets asthma when she is sick, just like me!
Mum and the Littlest Sister spent all day at the hospital, on Thursday, and didn't get home until late.
I decided I needed some attention and made sure Mum didn't get much sleep. I put everyone on 'hospital watch' for me for the same thing! (Hospital watch is when we watch me to decide whether or not I am bad enough to be taken to hospital, or to call an ambulance.) Our bags were packed, just in case. I was bad with my eating and drinking, and refused most things I was offered.
Its lucky we have our Doctor sister to look after us!
(I'm ok, but still being watched pretty close for my breathing... Because of the long-term breathing support I had in my first weeks, I do have a chronic lung condition. That's why I end up with pneumonia each year.)
