Flu season

It’s the cold, dreary, days of January which also means…flu season. We always get our flu shots and I think it helps but Maxwell got hit. I knew he was exposed to the flu and started feeling bad and running fever so I took him up the doc and got…a negative flu test. Nope. I knew it was the flu, just like a few years ago when Spencer had it, so I took him to the walk-in clinic first thing the next morning and, sure enough! Flu! We got him Xofluza and he literally felt better in hours and so he only missed a day and a half of school! Hooray!

We had some fun things coming up and reeeeeally didn’t want the others to get the flu and the walk-in doc said she would prescribe Xofluza to them as it can also help prevent you from getting the flu after you’ve been exposed. So, I checked these two out of school, took them to the doc, and got them a prescription! They also got a cookie out of the deal so they didn’t mind at all!

So far, no one else has gotten the flu! Hooray!

Also, Robert and I are 17 years married yesterday and 19 years together. Our first pic together back in 2006…

Cute then, cute now! 🙂
