Personally I would definitely prefer a friendly email asap letting me know, and offering to reschedule if need be. No one likes getting sick, and it obviously effects business. Be honest and give her the choice of whether to see you or not. It would be a lot worse if you show up sick without mentioning it. Hope you feel better!

The level of respect goes up for a client if he is feeling unwell and calls me to cancel. He is not only thinking of his immediate needs but my health and safety too. That is the mark of a great client!

Place this situation in reverse...would you appreciate a lady seeing you if she were coming down with something?  You'll make the right choice.

I canceled an appointment with a lady a few years ago because I woke up with a sinus attack and could barely breath. Being under the weather is a definite mood-killer.

And lose money for all the other appointments we have to cancel when we're under the weather?

I once had a client who KNEW that he was "getting over" the flu and came to see me anyway, telling me only mid-way through the session.

I fell deeply ill for SEVEN DAYS (@ $200 a day in a hotel as I was on tour) and lost thousands of dollars.

I'll never forget that.

If you're under the weather always stay home!

been suggested. Just wanted to say that you're off to a good start, in that you asked for opinions when you were unsure as how to proceed. That's what this board is about, and there's no question that's to silly to ask. You may be directed elsewhere for answers but you will get the info. you're seek.
