Poor pet, I know how you feel. Sick kids are the worst, you really feel like a prisoner in your own home doing hard time lol. Especially when they are very young like yours. Its times like those I do resort to using the TV. I normally only give my two 1 hours worth of TV in the after noon but when they are both sick and grumpy and nothing is good enough then I think the TV is fantastic. Even if it just gives you an hour of peace where you can de-stress.
I hope DD feels better soon.
