You know they aren't faking it...

when the kid that has a cold and asked to stay home...is now reading quietly on the couch because the TV noise hurts his head. Note, this is the child, that when healthy, views reading as a chore and usually finds any and all excuses not to read.

And when he says "I know I need to miss school and skip tennis. My head is too stuffy to do either one". This boy LIVES for his Wednesday afternoon tennis lesson.

Sometimes it isn't the classic signs of illness you have to watch for...it's the atypical behaviors that make you realize he really is sick...
