I just started reading Sleep Donation by Karen Russel. Very unsettling concept! (I had no idea it was National Sleep Month when I chose to read this eBook)
Amazon.com: Sleep Donation: A Novella (Kindle Single) eBook: Karen Russell: Kindle Store

Youngest son is home from school with mononucleosis;
But it took a while for us to get this diagnosis.
He complained of headaches first and then he got a rash.
Couldn't get him motivated - all he'd do was crash.

I kept on insisting he get up and go to school.
Didn't want to see my son grow up to be a fool.
Now I'm feeling guilty 'cause the kid was really sick...
Turns out that his mom's the one who's dumber than a brick.

:down:

Mono is awful. I hope he gets through it quickly! Hang in there Mrs. S, we all have done this with kids.

Ugh - that's a miserable long sickness. Wishing your boy well soon. He'll probably sleep most of the month.
