All Better

Outside of a cough, Miles is feeling much better. It was a long weekend, but he made it and is now well enough to go back to school to get sick again! Yeah!!

FYI: NEVER, EVER give your child (or yourself) Tamiflu (research it, it is horrible). Miles had a bunch of nasty reactions from just one day's dose and I felt awful for giving it to him. I had to pour a $50 prescription down the drain. I try to avoid giving him any medication, but he was so sick, I felt I didn't have a choice, so I went against my better judgment and this time I definitely lost.

Oh no! I'm so sorry that you guys had it too. Aidan and Emmy both got swine flu earlier this month - both had tamiflu and seemed to do OK on it. It sounds like miles got a bad case - both my kids were only REALLY sick for about 36hours. Hope the rest of you stay healthy!
