^I forgot about mono. Had that in the mid 80s. I was a single mom of two and the best I could manage was to get my older daughter fed and off to school in the morning. Put the toddler in bed with me with things to eat and drink, turned on the TV and slept pretty much all day. I don't recall much about pain or fever or anything but I have never been so damn tired in my life.
I'm your huckleberry.
