Sick on the mouth of Christmas

[Warriorpostie]

I’ve been feeling ill all week, gradually got worse as the week has progressed. Felt myself taking a panic attack in the van today that I can’t go on. Scared to call in sick tomorrow as I was off last month with a neck injury.

You can be off more than once. Even getting a stage isn't the end of the world. If you need to go on the sick, just do it, your health is more important than a crappy job.

Just wondering what this means >> "Sick on the mouth of Christmas" ?
