H1N1 Flu

Green got sick the other day and started running a fever, he was down and out and didn't feel like sitting up to get a drink. Paul took him to the Dr. and they said it cost to much to do the h1n1 test and went ahead and started him on Tamiflu because he had all the symptoms, next Ben gets it and he is down and out for about a day, Green still extreemly weak and not able to do much more than sit up and get a drink and take his meds. Fever ran about 102.5. So seeing how this is spreading pretty fast I went ahead and took the rest of the kids to the Dr. and got Ben started on the Tamiflu too. I also got a bottle for Harrison just in case while we were there. The Dr. said not to start him on it unless his fever went above 101 and he had not started running a fever yet. So we went home and sure enough it hit Harrison that afternoon. He was down and out too. Three very sick kids and the little one had not got it yet. Dr. says if the little one gets it to bring her back to see him and he was going to be closed the next day.
