we're singing the influenza blues

Well since Friday, we have had the flu here at our house.... and still do. John brought it home from work and he had the worst case so far. He is still suffering with a horrible cough and no energy and generally not feeling good. Then Kassidy and Desi got it. It looks like they will be able to go to school tomorrow, though. Yay! They didn't have as bad of a time as John. We gave them some oscillococooinum. It's expensive, but it's over the counter and safe for kids. It seemed to help. Now we are just hoping and praying that Lindzi, Brooklyn, Chris or I don't get it too! My only hope is that Lindzi got the flu shot this year at her one year old check up... let's hope that works for her. Chris is hardly home, so he's fairly safe. It's just Brooklyn and I that are scared like no other. Anyway we'll survive it one way or another.
