The Flu is Officially in the House!

Yesterday afternoon was like a blur to me at the moment, as the chain of events all kinda seem to run together...I mostly remamber the 105 fever and taking it over and over again to make sure the thermometer was working properly....and after taking my "normal" temp and then redoing Tylers, we decided he needed to go to the doctor ASAP. I dropped Garrett off at his Dads, and I called Shawn, and told him to meet us. Tyler was hallucinating and that was kinda scaring me too! The media has completely gotten everyone on their toes about the flu, and I was no exception.....we took him to an urgent care who told us with his fever being as high as it was, that we should take him to the ER which is where they were going to send us too!. So we went straight there. Luckily Cape Fear Valley has a pediatrics emergency room and there wasn't a long wait...so now...all of our fingers are crossed that we don't get it. And I get to go get Garrett from his Dads today. For now, I'm off to buy some Lysol and spray this apartment down! Any volunteers to come help?
