Flu Circus

Kids were getting sick one after the other. *sigh* Baby wasn't spared. The virus is sure ferocious. All who fell sick were really out & down for a few days. Baby started having high fever yesterday. The fever was quite unrelenting, continuing until today, but it eased off by this afternoon. The powers of breastfeeding. Whew! In the meantime, it sure wasn't comfortable carrying this little fireball! Hot, hot, hot! He hated that fever patch, he hated sleeping on the cold cushion.

Could this be h1n1? In all probability. H1n1 is already a community illness. Docs don't ask patients to be tested, and we didn't insist.
