SWINE FLU The flu hit me hard a couple weeks ago.....I spent a long weekend under 6 blankets and a heating pad just to try to keep warm even though my temperature was over 102 degrees!
As I had mentioned in an earlier post to my blog, Logen got the flu, which we now suspect to be the swine flu also. Colin was only sick for about 24 hours but had a lingering cough for a couple weeks, so we all decided just to keep him home from school for 2 weeks while he was coughing.
When this started, I did take both of the kids to the doctor to have their lungs listened to, to make sure no pneumonia was setting in. According to the doctor, they both sounded good.
When I went to the doctor they treated me like I was a walking disease; they made me wear a mask and everyone seemed to keep their distance from me. The doctor told me I had the swine flu. I tried to get her to say I just had the regular flu but she would not change her mind! She would not give me any medication, told me to not do anything for a couple weeks and I SHOULD get feeling better. Well I do finally feel better, but the cough is still lingering around!
Thank God there was a healthy person in the house....The flu has not caught up with Dennis yet....keep our fingers crossed and prayers in mind.
I hope to be up and running and updating my blog more real soon.
