When it rains it pours, huh?! My sweet 7 year old tested positive for H1N1 today. A scary high fever was her only symptom and she was the picture of health yesterday. Please pray that our little 6 month old stays healthy, and of course the rest of us. Thanks so much!
UPDATE: My 7yo is already fever-free on her own for over 24 hours! Yeah! But, I'm taking dd3 and 6 month old dd in to be tested this morning . As my ds11 says, "Think negative!"
Hacking in to Udpate on November 13th: I just got a note from Molly's daughter and Molly is on her way to the ER with baby Kelly. Please pray! ~Elizabeth
New update: Doing okay, IV doing wonders, fever coming down, still waiting for bloodwork and radiology reports. Keep praying! Love, Molly ~Elizabeth
From Molly this morning 11/14: Doing well. Temp zoomed up then back down and now is going up again, but they give it until 102 before medicating. Threw up the tamiflu, so hopefully that will go better today. Threw up formula, praying that will go better today. Beautifully hydrated with IV. We'll see what today brings. I think they'll send us home. They allow absolutely no visitors to the hospital, in fact we're not allowed to leave the room! Must go, thank you for your prayers. Love, Molly
We're home! Kelly has done remarkably well. Her fever has stayed down without medication and she's keeping her formula down as well. She's resting now, definitely happy to be home. Thank you all so much for your prayers! My love to you all!

Ugh. Persistent, determined little bug, that H1N1! Praying that your family is only lightly touched, and the baby left alone!

Oh, Molly...forgive me for shifting into practical overdrive...do you have your plans and preparations set?
:: A small notebook for taking notes about who you give what to and when?
:: Your symptom assisting arsenal? This thread has some great ideas.
I'm praying, praying here!!!!

Prayers going up for you and your family now! We're going through something pretty bad here as well. Haven't taken anyone in for testing though, so can't say that it's h1n1. But it's pretty bad and with 7 kids it's lasting f o r e v e r. Along with prayers I'll offer up my day for you.
May God bless you!

Thinking negative, Molly!
Does Oscillicoccinum work on this flu? It always works quickly on the seasonal flu.
Healthy prayers coming!
