Hello Flu.
Tags:Spent some time with Chris at Urgent Care yesterday - after chest x-rays, blood work, strep test, etc...he has the flu (his fever spiked over 104). Woke up this morning...Simon has a fever. Doing the caretaker/mama thing and praying I can stay healthy. Will be away from the computer for a couple days laying low.

Oh no! I hope you and Simon can get some Tamiflu and avoid the worst of it. Sambucol is supposed to work well as an herbal alternative.

As an ER nurse, I have two suggestions: Fluids, Fluids, Fluids, Fluids. I can't stress it enough and buy some Clorox Cleanup and hit every hard surface in your house including TV remotes, phones, and wall switches. It will end, but it will seem like forever. I'll pray for you.

Got to love being sick.
Take care

Yikes... we had the milder flu here as well...plenty of chicken soup...broth...fluids. Take care of yourself. I'm sure they told you tamiflu in the first 48 hrs if you find you have the symptoms. Been there...done that...not fun.
