That Time Of Year Again...



We have had a sicky house since Thursday. Trey was complaining about how sore he was Thursday morning on the way to school. I thought he had just played hard at awanas the night before. When i picked him up from school, he was still saying "oh mommy, i am so sore". He went and layed down and i went to check on him and he was burning up with 104 fever. I think he was achy, not sore :) We though he was ok Sunday but he ended up with a high fever again Sunday night and still tonight is running 104 with a horrible cough and achy body. Ethan was sick the end of last week too with the same symptoms, he is still cranky and not totally back to par but seems to be getting better. I took Raegan in to the dr with the boys last Friday because she has broken out over her whole body with eczema now and continues with the congestion. They listened to her and said she was wheezing, so she was given a breathing treatment. We already have a nebulizer of course for Avery so we got more meds for Raegan for breathing treatments at home and also a steroid ointment for her skin. I was really glad that i took her in because i had no idea she was wheezing, she just sounded really stuffy. Avery has stayed well so far but she is still finishing up her second round of antibiotics for bronchitis. Trey did get the flu shot, actually the whole family did. After he got it, we went to the car and got a block down the road and he said " oh, i don't feel good, i'm going to get sick". We pulled over and got him out and he collapsed in Johnny's arms and was white as a sheet. We went back to the parking lot and made him sit outside to get some air for a few minutes but he still was not getting his color back and couldn't walk without help so we took him right back in to get checked out. He had some kind f reaction (can't remember the name) where his blood pressure dropped and heart rate went up. The had him lay upside down for about 15 minutes and then he started feeling back to normal. Needless to say, he probably won't be getting the flu shot next year because of that and the fact that i think he now has the flu anyway. Mabye we will get all these bugs out of the way before Christmas!!
