SICK, NO SICK, SICK

COLDS

All of us...some worse than others.  

Boys in the family took the bigger hit in this category.

SINUS INFECTIONS

Andrew, Stephen, and Jonah.  

All three needed antibiotics for this.  In fact, Jonah needed 30 days of antibiotic to get over his, and now today it seems like he is starting with a green runny nose again.

COUGH

Andrew, Stephen, Ben, and Jonah

STREP THROAT

Jonah, which meant more antibiotics

FEVER

Jonah, 7 days into his antibiotic for strep.  

Doctor thinks he had the bad luck of catching 

a virus along with strep.  

WHEEZING/BREATHING ISSUES

Jonah, doctor didn't suspect pneumonia 

so no chest xray needed.  

Just back on inhalers until the 

cough/wheezing improves 

(pulmonologist had let him go off them this fall).  

WINNER?

If you were keeping a tally, the boys scored higher than the girls in our family, and Jonah is the overall "winner" for most sick.  Poor guy.  

This about sums up the week some of us have had.  Ready to feel better again! 

On the positive side, we are grateful no one tested positive for influenza, and we are thankful there are antibiotics to help.  

Here's to "hoping for feeling healthy soon"

Note: milk is being used, not alcohol :)

Just in case you are wondering: the phrase "sick, no sick, sick" is from one of my 

favorite TV shows,  The Middle.  

For a good laugh, watch Season 3 Episode 6.
