Anyone else dealing with flu season??
My hubby was diagnosed with it~poor guy! :RN:
Luckily our Dr. gave everyone medication so that noone else would come down with it. So far so good~us girls are doing pretty good at steering clear of the nasty!!
In my attempts to get my hubby to eat I have been too~
I'm walking so my ticker is moving...but sadly the scale isn't!
Anyway.....sorry I have been away! Been very busy working and tending to the sick~

Sorry to hear your hubby has the flu MGF. I hope the rest of you don't come down with it.

Sorry your DH has it. I had the flu two weeks ago, yuck. Just my luck, I get a flu shot and get the strain it "missed".

I hope the rest of you can fend it off. Don't forget to clean everything and change his toothbrush as soon as he's well!

What Kind Of Medicine Did Your Dr. Give You So You Don't Catch The Flu? What Is It Called? I Am Going To Ask My Dr. About It. I Can't Get The Flu Shot. Am Allergic. Hope Your Husband Gets Better Soon.

So far, Austin's the only one who hasn't got sick. Shull caught a cold, passed it to me. I let it get to full blown flu with bronchitis. Then, Shull decides to get all lovey with me, and takes the flu just as I'm starting to feel better.

My dad just had a short vacation to the ICU with pneumonia. He's a little better now, but still having some trouble breathing. He's on OX with breathing treatments at home. I think he's on the mend now.

MGF, I hope your DH gets to feeling better real soon. I miss our evening chats! HUGS!

the medication is called Tamiflu I think...
We are all taking it. Jim is taking it 2 times a day and the girls and I are taking 1 a day.
Jim is doing lots better and so far the girls and I are A O K!
I was just really thankful that the Dr. gave us some too~I spent a weeks vacation about 2 years ago with the flu. I really have better things to do this year~
