Creeping Crud

Tuesday
"Kyle fell asleep at lunch and we think he has a temperature." Little did we know these words meant that for the next week EVERYONE in our house would be sick.

Coughs, headaches, nausea, human mucus machines and other unmentionable maladies.
You know your child is sick when he lays quietly on the couch for 4 hours.
By Friday, he was better. 8 children in his class were out with the same symptoms.
Drew's lasted till Saturday.
Mine lasted till Sunday.
Thursday John came home and went to bed.
Friday he went to work, came home and went to bed.
Saturday, Sunday..all filled with nausea, fevers, etc. He got it both barrels.
Didn't eat enough to take his diabetes medicine, couldn't keep anything down.
Monday we went to the hospital where they promptly admitted him.
Pneumonia and bronchitis.
We're here till at least Wednesday.
Blood sugar went from 89 to 374. Within a 6 hour period.
