- Your Health Will Suffer:
Moms – you know this already, if the body isn’t given time to rest, the immune system will suffer.
Sure, you can load up on Vitamin C, or try and power through with loads of caffeine, but just because you can go to work doesn’t mean you should.
In fact, experts say going to work when you are sick is a sign of bad boundaries.
If you don’t take care of your health, no one else will.
Taking a day, or two, or even a week to recover from the flu or whatever illness you have is not selfish!
Every time you “power” through another day feeling sick, you are beating up your immune system.
