Bad headache, poor appetite

I have had the most horrible headache the last few days and to top it off my appetite in non-existent. Then today Gage cried and cried and didn't want to go to school.  I felt terrible putting him on the bus and walking away but he wasn't sick just in a mood.  I think its because he knows mommy hasn't been feeling well the last few days and thinks he needs to help me.  He's growing up so much and I hate feeling sick.  I don't want my child growing up thinking he has to help/take care of mom all the time.  That's why working on getting this surgery is the right thing to do.  He's only five and will be six either right after or just before I get my surgery so he won't go through all his school years with a fat mommy.  I hope that the surgery helps with most if not all of my health/mobility issues.
