Sick

We have been so sick for the past 3 weeks! Nathan got sick New Year's Eve and missed the first week back to school. He had the flu bad, and then got "secondary bacterial double ear infections" or something. The antibiotics cleared the infection quick but made him throw up. 

Then Ava and I got sick two days later. She got better pretty quick but still has a little cough. I am not sure if she had the flu or not because she acted so much different than Nathan. 

And then there was me....I am pretty sure I have never been so sick in my life. I coughed so much that I couldn't move, I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep. My ribs and sternum were so sore. Tyler had to do everything around the house because I was the biggest, laziest bum. I am still trying to get my energy level back, but I got my rear kicked by this.

Tyler started coughing last night, but says it is just from cleaning at work. 

We have used so many tissues, and even more clorox wipes, so hopefully we are flu free for the rest of the year!

Sounds miserable!!! Have you seen a doc yet? I was sick all december it felt like with a cough that would rack my whole chest and lungs. The doc gave me Augmenten and also an inhaler for the 7 days. My cough felt so much more relieved after 3 days.. I hope you feel better, Monica! That is so terrible! :(

You poor thing, how awful!! And I feel bad because I totally could have had Mark hook you up with some breathing treatments and steroids. Sounds like bronchiolitis, which I've had before and is no joke!! :(
