What a delightful story this is! I completely adore your sense of humour. Who else would dare to be so respectless about Aragorn, but would still manage to remain so affectionate?

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm delighted you are enjoying my story.The credit for the idea must go to Raksha.I do love Aragorn,but would not like to have to look after him when he is ill!

Aragorn ! - shame on you. Your son is acting much more mature than you. Poor Faramir and Arwen. I admire their patience. The answers from the attending healer were hilarious. Lovely written. Please more. Thank you. Lai.


Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm delighted you are enjoying this.Aedred is recurring OC of mine.Coming from Rohan,he is less in awe of Aragorn than the Gondorians.They are quite good friends usually, but not when he is Aragorn's healer!I fear our King is the world's worst patient,an idea of Raksha's!

Poor Faramir; he's stuck not only running Gondor but babysitting its King as well. Physician, heal thyself indeed; Aragorn is definitely not a model patient!

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.If Faramir wants to get his own back he will have to be as difficult next time he is ill!Any volunteers to look after Aragorn?

Men make bad patients, Doctors make even worse ones!
Not much you can do, keep him comfortable and feed him lots of fluid and try to stop him from scratching,mittens would be good!
Poor Arwen and Faramir, they are in for a long haul!
More please,
Lynda

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.You are right on both counts! I feel as sorry for Arwen and Faramir as I do for Aragorn!

'Tis said that doctors make the worst patients, and this is certainly true of Aragorn! He's acting totally spoiled, of course--more petulant than a child, really, and demanding of company and attention. He'd be ashamed were his son to act so! Heh!

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.It would serve Aragorn right if adult Eldarion got measles or something in time to come and proved just like daddy!Aragorn truly iss a dreadful patient!The idea was Raksha's!

Hee hee hee! Aragorn's got the chicken pox!

This fic did make me realize something: since Aragorn was raised by elves, who don't get ill, it'd make a lot of sense for him not to get exposed to a good many of the diseases that most people deal with in their childhood.

I look forward to seeing how tough a patient he will be in time to come--right now he's just in the "denial" stages (at least as far as chicken pox goes). : D

And the title fits PERFECTLY! lol!

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. You are spot on,Aragorn was too isolated as a child to have the usual ailments.I fear he is going to be a very tough patient! I'm pleased you like the title.

The timing on this is great Linda. My brother has the 'flu'. In other words a streaming cold to you or I and he sounds just like Aragorn! :)

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.Many always think every cold is "flu".I'm glad I got the timing right!

A grownup with a children's ailment is always amusing! I only hope he doesn't end up with any of the other problems likely to come with it! Heh!

Silly man!

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I promise not to torment him too much!

DreamflowerReviewed Chapter: 2 on 12/3/2008
LOL! Of course he would never have been exposed as a child to any other children's diseases! *shakes head*

Of course medical people are usually the world's worst patients...

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. That is Aragorn's problem, he was never with children when young.I'm pleased it made you smile.Aragorn is proving typical of medical people!
