please say a little prayer that it is mild and no one ends up in the hospital--especially this momma!
UPDATE: Nov 2: This flu is still going strong.
Little Kimmy started last night with a high fever and I need to take a 14 and 15 year old to the docs this morning for a pheumonia check
I only seem to have a touch of it, thank God!
UPDATE: Nov 6:Well, after 5 hours, beginning at the doc's, we headed for x-rays, then picked up two other sick kids that the doc wanted to check on, returned to the doctor to find out results, we have: Amy with pheumonia and a secondary viral infection unrelated to swine flu (lots of meds and nebulizing), Daniel with an "awful" ear infection and an "awful" sinus infection(lots of meds),Mark as a non-productive flu cough, (concerning and needs nebulizing until cough free), Grace has a wheeze (needs nebulizing until cough free) ....This is only with 4 of the kids seen today, at least one more needs the doc tomorrow!
This could last for several more weeks. She is especially concerned with Mark-9 who has an "unproductive" cough---she said this is the cough they hear with the kids that get "into trouble" with this flu, because they aren't able to clear out their lungs.
Please keep praying me through this dear friends--I almost "lost it" today--I am sure your prayers are helping.
Update: THANK YOU for all your wonderful prayers...
I believe we made it through 2 weeks of the swine flu!
The best update is here

Praying, Joanne.
This post has some great natural remedies for the flu, if you are interested in using some natural products. I use many of the same products and can attest to their effectiveness.
