I told him he was ill

After a bad night's sleep (hubby was coughing all night), I went into the office early.
Hubby had a week's sick leave before Christmas with a nasty cough and cold, and another 4 days off with the same thing last week.
He went back to work yesterday and just about got through the day. Today, I insisted that he went to the 'walk in and wait' GP clinic at our local hospital.
Hubby has borderline pneumonia.
