to just be left alone or don't mind people hovering over you? I don't mean a normal head cold or 24 hr. thing. If I'm really down like when I had pnumonia, just get away from me. If I need something I'll let you know.
I ask because my sister just got over pnumonia and she said her youngest daughter drove her crazy. She knows she meant well but said I just wanted to sleep and rest.
Wondered how others felt.

Alone unless I need something

Somewhere in the middle. I don't want to be totally left alone, but no hoovering.

I am just recovering from pneumonia and I wanted to be left alone. I want quiet when I don't feel well; actually, I always prefer quiet to noise. I dislike hovering and I also dislike people telling me what I should be doing to get well. Meds, sleep, and quiet work well for me.

Left alone - but someone available to assist if things progress to the point that I can't care for myself. I don't like hovering - but I want hubby to care. lol

Definitely leave me alone. Check on me periodically to see if I need anything, then leave me alone.

Hip replacement is not "being sick", but I kicked my husband out 2 hrs.after we got to the hospital the morning of my surgery. It was bad enough having medical personel at me every time I looked up. Nothing he could do except sit and it was not a big deal. I'm not 5 and it was only overnight, see ya tomorrow, bye. Can you tell I'm a wee bit independent?
