Our house is a hot zone! The week before last Bryce had the flu and missed a week of school. We ended up going to Urgent Care because he just seemed like he wasn't getting any better. It was packed there and we ended up spending 3 hours waiting and finally were seen at 11pm, and only spent 5 min. with the doctor. I'm thinking Bryce could've missed the doctor visit and would've been fine.
Cameron got sick Friday night, but he has had a high fever plus vomiting. The poor little guy. He seems to be turning around. I've been doing some " Dr. Quinn" home remedies that I wish I would've started earlier, but didn't see the symptoms coming. Within the first 24 hours I took my friend Janae's advice and put vaseline and smashed garlic on Cameron's feet wrapped in sarane wrap and socks. ( Yes dad, I know you've given me that advice before. I'll try to listen next time. ) :) He didn't like it at first, but then just fell asleep and forgot all about it. I've also been giving him some echanasha (sp) and some other herbs that I can't think of at the moment. Getting over the flu is just a waiting game.
Last night Claire got a high fever and it made her whole body looked like she was sunburned. She would spit out the Ibuprophen so I had to cool her down the old fashioned way with a wash cloth. So, needless to say Jesse and I haven't been getting too much sleep and are looking forward for this to be all be over!!
If any of you have any flu fighting tips I'm all ears! :) I just hope Cameron is well by the time his birthday arrives!

Hope they get better soon and hope you don't get it!
Poor kids. One gets it, they all seem to get it too. I hope you don't get it. Brig is sick right now, so I hope that Whitney doesn't get it.
