My daughter is one of the most stubborn people I’ve ever met. “Mom‚ it’s really not that bad.” She sits across the island hunched over‚ her voice gruff with sickness. “Well we should get it checked out anyway‚ you could have strep.” I insist. She tilts her head letting out a sigh. Looking off at an angle‚ avoiding my eyes she claims‚ “But it doesn’t feel like strep.” “Doesn’t mean that it couldn’t be!
