GO AWAY SWINE FLU!
So last Monday night Jaxon woke up at midnight with a fever og 102.7. Great right I had a feeling something was going to happen. We were going to go to Utah tues anf while I packed I kept thinking it's not going to happen. Needless to say I have been Terrified about getting the swine flu. In fact I was going down to Utah to get the vaccine early so we could avoid this mess. Anyways we fall into all the categories to get vaccinated Jaxon has ashma Kendry is under 2 months so TJ an I can also get it. Well we got the swine flu first. It has been going around our neighborhood like wildfire. I think there are at least 2 family's a week with it. This flu is nasty. One piece of advice youand your kids get it TAKE THEM TO THE DOCTOR! Make sure you go with in the first 48 hrs of the fever or they won't be able to get you on any meds. I couldn't get Jax to the doctor till 4:30 on Tues and he was miserable. Poor thing had a pretty high fever and just lay on the couch watching movies. Any of you who know Jax knows he does not just sit there. When we got to the Doctors I had to waite for a parking spot. I have never seen so many people there. We finally left the Doctors at 5:30 and we were off to the only pharmacy in town that had the liquid form of tamaflu. After 2 sleepless nights and 2 awful days Jax finally started feeling better. I am the only other person that got this horrible flu (thank heavens). I did not get any meds and still feel like crap and probley will for 1-2 more days yuck. I am so thankful for the blessings we received, for wonderful friends and family helping us out. I am most thankful for the health of my kids, that Kendry didn't get it and no complications arouse for Jaxon. We have the best friends and family so willing to help and Rhonda and Brett for taking Jax so I could get some rest and to Keep the kids at a distance. Jaxon and I still have a pretty nasty cough and stuffy/runny noses but we are on the up side! Thanks for all the help thoughts and prayers we received in our behalf. And Thank Heavens TJ didn't get sick because he is the worst sick person Ever!
