Taking care of a sick little LDR

[Addraen]

My little has been sick for a few days now and all I want to do is take care of her, hold her, and make her feel better- but we're dealing with a long distance issue for the next couple months.  This is both of our first DD/lg relationship and we're both relatively new to the long distance thing.  How do other CGs make their littles feel better from far away?

I'm not sure if this can be help but maybe u can tell her n remind her to eat n take her meds right on the time. And checking her more bout how's her feeling than usual.

I have a number of health issues, so this subject is ever-relevant to me. I've been in a handful of distance relationships and the way I was taken care of varied drastically by relationship... I will say the things that meant a lot to me... 

 

I appreciated being checked on through the day, checking temperature, sometimes together when possible (over video, being guided to make sure I was doing it properly) If I was in the hospital, sometimes we would video chat... - I appreciated being given a schedule for medication usage (as per doctors orders, of course) and having that enforced by a Daddy... having a routine for when you're sick is a good starting point. If there is yucky stuff involved (such as vomiting) is there a cute bucket that can be used, or a towel, or something that you two can pick together. When I was little any time I was sick my mom would get me a stuffed animal to make me feel better... and that stuffed animal would be the mascot for health... a cheerleader if you will that could be there even when she couldn't...

 

It's the little details, really... I know personally I need a Daddy who will be cognizant of my health, and wellbeing... and the fact that you are asking is showing that you are very much aware and concerned with your own little one's needs and wellbeing, on a broader level. - Really, that itself is the most important thing.

 

Oh, and I hope she feels better soon!

I try to keep checking on her without seeming overbearing. She's a Virgo so she's not great at expressing the "too personal" parts of her being sick and she's wildly independent despite giving herself to me (which I love) but this means I have to check my daddy duties/attitude at the door sometimes when speaking to her, or risk upsetting her big girl side.  I'd love to do something like the stuffed animal or the cute bucket, but receiving gifts is her lowest love language and she gets extra bratty when she thinks there will be a gift happening. I'm talking major eye rolling and things that would usually earn her some form of (generally playful) punishment. I guess all I can do for now is toe the line and be as concerned as she will let me be. I appreciate the input!!

Just be supportive! Ask her how she's feeling, offer to watch a movie on Skype with her.

watching movies together helps alot and will make her feel loved

also reading or singing to her if she likes that.

otherwise check on her and remind her that your there for her
