Has officially hit our home. I think Mica actually had it a few weeks ago but the the test came back negative. (Apparently there are a lot of false negatives, yay) she had a high fever, sore throat, cough. But didn't always act sick. I actually thought she was faking, made an appointment and when we got there her temp was 104! Oops.....
So after 5 days she was back to normal and on with our lives we went. Last Thursday night I had a sore throat. Friday I was sure I had one heck of a chest cold. By Sunday, I was in the emergency room, cause I knew I was dying of said chest cold 😷 {dramatic much?} they did the flu test and I tested positive. I was pretty dehydrated so I had to stay a while and get pumped full of fluids. I have several bruises to prove the dehydration, because they had a hard time starting an iv. Ouch! Once I was all hydrated up, back home I went. The headaches, body aches, sore throat, coughing, lost voice, sinus, fever ridden days that followed were pretty much a blur. I didn't always know what day it was or what time of what day it was. Ted's parents were amazingly helpful and I am so grateful to them. They helped get kids to and from school, to and from dance lessons, checked Carson out of school when he got sick, took care of Chrislyn for me, went shopping for us and kept me stocked up on meds. They were so wonderful! Nick and Carson got sick and they are taking a while to recover as well, they both have fever and coughing.. Ted got sick, but he was out at a snowmobile school for search and rescue, he thinks he sweat all of his sickness out in a couple of days. {I am jealous!} I am on day 8, I am finally back to work but boy am I miserable!! I am so ready to get back to normal, have my kids back to normal, soak my house in Lysol and Clorox and get on with our lives!!
