I'd make her sleep in the basement. Wink

I'm thinking the barn would be more appropriate!

Professor, on the more serious side, what made her go the doctor to be tested rather than just thinking it was a "regular" flu or a bad cold? Bson is pretty sick today, and even though he hasn't really been around anyone else with the flu, and it's not supposedly in his school, I'm wondering how long we let it ride.

I was exposed to the swine flu at work...My hubby and I have been sick for a couple of weeks and I think it's the swine flu. We're still feeling a little run down, but much better!

amom, to be answer your question I asked my wife this morning and she said with this she couldn't breathe and her back hurt from coughing all of the time and believe me she was. She also had severe head congestion, low fever, runny nose, dizziness, achy and was very tired too.

Thank you, Professor. He's not that bad and seems to be improving. In fact, he played an entire soccer game (and even scored!) last night, although I could tell he was not running at full speed and had to stop frequently to catch his breath. So my worry has shifted to Ason out at college. I spoke to him last night and he sounds terrible. He plans on visiting the wellness center today to make sure he's doing all he should.
