We really know how to be sick! Here are our top 3 sick weeks....
#1 First place goes to November 2008 when we were leaving to go on a cruise, kids were sick for a week, still sick when we left, got B & A and D & A sick. James got sick on airplane to Miami and I got sick on shuttle to cruise ship! Very bad!
#2 Second place goes to July 2010 - The week we moved from Woodland Hills to Viewcrest (kids throwing up at both houses and trying to move). It was memorable taking the carpet cleaner back and forth at all hours of the night.
#3 Third place goes to this past week. Unlike the stomach flu, we have had more of an achey cold. It all began April 6 and we still have sickies home from school today. It is 3 days of the worst stomach ache, high temperature, and sore throat. Then it switchess from feeling like an elephant is sitting on your chest to feeling like your face is going to explode, continued with a sore throat, horrible cough etc. It lasts well over a week and leaves you wishing you were dead, okay, maybe not really dead, but pretty close! :"(
Last week I left the house only twice. Thank you for everyone who helped with carpooling, bringing dinners, bringing missed homework, and helping our family is lots of small ways.
Here is to a healthy week. Our record would show we get this sick about every 2 years! Let's hope it stays that way!
