How does your dog act when you're sick?

Ours always seem to get unusually close and lovable, and look at us like "whats wrong"?

I came home from work early today and went right to bed with a cup of tea. Sierra is curled up close and cuddling. She's always good for a cuddle when I'm not feeling well.

However I am NOT looking forward to after Matt leaves for work tonight and I'll have to get out of bed and go out in the cold to take her for pee breaks. Hopefully she'll be patient.

Nia doesn't care at all. No reaction from her whatsoever. If I cough too hard she might tilt her head and look at me funny but she shows no concern. Instead she just grabs toys and puts them on me and asks me to play like usual.

All of them get very clingy when I don't feel well. On my worst days (I've got chronic pain, so it's pretty frequent) Smidgen will body block the other dogs so they cannot touch me. They all pout and curl up at the lower parts of my body while Smidgen lays next to my upper body with her head next to mine.
