Sorry for not responding sooner and thanks for the well wishes. Latest report...
Logan, our 7 year old grandson began to display flu symptoms last weekend. A trip to the dr with tests conducted and the results came back today that he does indeed have swine flu as well as another type of flu.
His temp shot up to 103 early in the week but subsided to 99 over a two day period.
His mom, our daughter began displaying symptoms on Tues. Dr visit yesterday with tests. And now his dad is feeling under the weather. We'll hopefully have results tomorrow.
I am his day-care provider after school for a 2-3 hour period but when he got sick last weekend, he wanted his mom to stay home with him rather than coming over here because, "I don't want to make Poppy sick."
When he made his visit to the dr, the receptionist instructed our daughter to call when she was in the parking lot so they could bring out a mask for him to wear before entering the building.
He will be out of school all next week as well which isn't making him a happy camper because he LOVES school - 2nd grader.
Gosh Dave, I’m so sorry your little grandson has the swine flu and am glad he is making progress on getting well. Hope your daughter doesn’t have it but certainly looks as if she may. When I started getting sick Monday/Tuesday, that entered my mind...thank goodness I am showing improvement. My doctor did send me antibiotics and they have helped a lot.
Thought it was so coincidental that they call you Poppy, as that is what our grandchildren called their grand-dad! Its a small world, isn’t it?
Wishing good health on the way for all!
Prayers for Logan, your daughter and SIL. So sorry to hear that nasty flu has hit your family..So hope you can stay well.
