Do you have comforts that you especially enjoy when you're out sick? What do you usually do besides lay around and feel gross?
I will usually watch Elf and then marathon cooking shows. Lately I've taken to marathoning Youtube cooking shows (there are tons and they are highly enjoyable!) instead of Netflix. My dog likes to wedge himself up against my chest and gently bat at my hair when I'm sick. He doesn't mind me coughing on him.
