Weeks of sickness

 

A mystery bug has been going thru our family. 


One night I found August asleep on the bathroom floor. The next day he told me his stomach didn't feel good, but he had no fever and no other symptoms so I sent him off to school.

Only to get a call an hour later that he threw up on the bus and to come get him, :( poor guy!


He never did throw up again, but he developed a mild fever later in the day and spent most of the day sleeping on the couch. Which if you know August, you KNOW that means he was sick because this boy is all energy.


He spent a total of 3 days off school since the school has a no fever in 24 hours policy and the fever went, but returned again the next afternoon.


He got better and then Doug and I both ended up with coughs and cold symptoms for the next week. Jeanie escaped the sickness somehow! And poor booger-nose Lucy is still suffering, she had a couple nights low-grade fever, but mostly the booger nose plagues her. 


This was her bed this morning, a fun time pulling out all the kleenex was had by her while I slept next to her blissfully unaware. All that kleenex, but did she bother to use one to wipe her nose faucet?!? 😆
