sick-o boys

It's been a long week in the Burch house! JD came down with the flu on Monday night. We took him to the doctor on Tuesday and they confirmed it H1N1 and put him on Tamiflu. His fever has been up and down the last 5 days. Highest was 103.7, which freaked me out a little bit. Between the Tamiflu and Tylonel, we are keeping his temp manageable, but he is still running a bit of a fever. He is more active today, perhaps stir-crazy, but that's good. He's eating a little more, so I hope that means he's feeling better.

On Thursday evening, Ethan began running a temp, too. We took him to the doc yesterday and they found an ear infection in both ears and a sinus infection. So, we've begun new meds (we just finished Amox. for 10 days) in hopes this will kick both the ear and sinus infections!

I have a bit of a sinus/head thing going on, too....so we're really hoping all this crud goes away soon!!! Send a little prayer our way for good health. John hasn't caught any of this yet, so I'm hoping he doesn't!
