    Gail,

    I'm so sorry you're having a rough chemo week and have a house full of sick kids- when it rains, it pours, huh?
    I'm thinking of and praying for you and your kids right now to all get well!
    I will try to call you this next week-

    Many hugs,
    Lisa

    My flu shot worked thank you very much!
    I love you all so much! Thank you for wonderful messages and thoughts.Two weeks ago my son(11) started with a cough and sore throat, then a few days later boom! Fever of 102+ for 3 days. Dr said it was the flu. I was so scared I would get it. I diligently stayed on top of his meds and watched for symptoms in me. Four days later, my daughter (9)warned me she was getting it. Then...four days of fever, up to 104.5, cough and sore throat. Another trip to the Dr. and now more meds. Meanwhile, my son is still coughing like crazy, nothing helps, all day and all night. No wheezes, can hear air moving, lungs sound clear. Hmm. On Friday, 10 days after his first Dr. visit, he wakes up feeling terrible and....temp again 101.8!! Agghh.....back to Dr.....different antibiotic and more and different meds. Also chest xray, CBC and several other tests.

    I disinfected my house as best I can, sent blanket to the cleaners, cooked, medicated, and cared for the two kiddo's (my daughter is still coughing quite a bit too. she seemed to be getting better, but last night she coughed a lot).....this all started on my last chemo day almost two weeks ago and now chemo is coming up again on Tuesday.

    I'm worn out and getting cranky but I want to cry that my son is so sick. I want him better. He's missed 2 weeks of school and the Dr wants him on Home and Hospital now since she can't release him to go back. He will check in with his teaacher once a week and do the work at home.

    Well....thank's for the thoughts and prayers, it means so very much to have people thinking of you in so many ways....I haven't been on the computer too much, here or facebook.

    Oh...but the one thing I know?...My flu shot worked!! YAY! No flu for me :)

    Love and hugs, Gail

    So sorry you are going through this!
    Gail,

    I am sorry to hear that you are dealing with all this. I know how stressful it is when the kids get sick and you feel helpless. Hang in there...this will pass. Take good care of you and know that I am thinking and praying for you.

    My younger daughter (9) is also coughing a lot the last few days...no fever yet. There is so much sickness going around at school. Ugh!!!

    Big hugs to you and the kids,
    Sara

    Hi Gail,

    I am the only one in my family who got the flu shot too. Fortunately, none of family has gotten hit with it- hope it stays that way, as I know it's definitely going around.
    I'm glad you're feeling better now, but it must be so stressful to have your kids, your son especially, be so ill. I wish there was something I could do for you, but since I'm not close, I'll just pray.

    Love, hugs, and prayers to you Gail-
    Lisa

    hi gail,

    sorry to hear about the kids and i hope they get over the flu and that it does not get you.

    tuesday is my chemo day as well and we have beem doing the folfox thing for months now.

    i know its not been easy for you and i hope this tuesday in particular is easy.

    try and rest and relax, you can only do what you can and pushing to hard short term won't help you in long term fight.

    praying for you and the kids,

    pete
