taking it like a man

Mike is so sick. Fever, chills, aching, coughing, stuffy head... is this beginning to sound like a commercial? Still, the last two days he has jumped out of bed at 6 in the morning and headed out to work a 12 hour day. His job (painting) is very physical, plus there is the added annoyance of the fumes. I don't know how he does it.

He was leaving this morning and asked me to make him some tea with lemon and honey instead of coffee. His face was beaded with sweat and I could tell he was miserable. Did he complain? No. In fact, he was trying to make ME feel better.

When the going gets tough, I can always count on Mike. He is an AMAZING man!
