Flu....

Yep, you guessed it. My immune system of steel finally gave in to all the gunk that Brad's been bringing home. Brad was sick for almost a month, Emily about half that time, and I was feeling really proud to be well. That has changed! Yesterday I was in bed ALL DAY. I have not stayed in bed sick like that since I had mono in high school. Since yesterday, things have been coming in waves. I feel ok one moment, the next I'll be sweating with a high fever, then it's back to cold chills and an achy body. Brad tested me last night, and I have the flu strain (Is that the right word?) that is less resistant to medicine. I've started meds, so hopefully I'll be up and going again soon. The fact that I had a flu shot is helping me a lot. My symptoms have been less severe, and I can actually function sometimes.

Emily has been going to Brad's parents' everyday. It breaks my heart to send her off every day, but I know it's for the best. I'm missing my little girl and hope I'm playing with her again by the end of the week!

I'm sorry! Aren't you glad you got the flu shot? Brad is so on top of things. John would be like, "Sorry! It will pass." :) Brad checks you out and everything. Good for him!
