Step One:
Surround yourself with germy children
Step Two:
Develop an ear infection which perforates your ear drum
Step Three:
Have an allergic reaction to antibiotics
Step Four:
Be unable to find hotel accommodation, forcing nurse to admit you for the night. In the morning, look sufficiently dishevelled and pained that you are allowed to stay another night.
Step Five:
Sleep for two days on codeine and toradol
Step Six:
When Dr makes jokes about billing Medicare for hotel services, have husband transfer you to actual hotel. Sleep for another day. Order room service. Sit on the beach. Breathe.
Unfortunately, to pull this off you will need a man willing and able to camp by himself with four children for a week. This is whilst on antibiotics himself for Worst Throat Infection Ever of All Time. And whilst chronically under slept, thanks to germy children, wife with low pain tolerance and obligatory 4am finish for last day of work before leaving on holidays.And willing to drive 1,500 kms during the week to ferry you to hospital and the hotel (this is after dirving 1,200 kms just to get to to Ningaloo Station!). I am impressed by my man on a daily basis but this holiday ... WOW.
