ES: Flu Bug Hits Home Hard

Last Tuesday my middle son, 12 years old, came home from school all flush and glassy eyed, parents know that look, low and behold, 102 fever. He seems to be our hardy one so one day home and he recovered at least back to a functional level. The following Saturday my oldest 15, felt funny at his brother’s CdA, jr. tackle game, that night, fever, next day a cough so loud so deep it rattles the foundation of the house. But last night, oh last night, 3am my daughter, my princess, 105 fever. Complete with those fever dreams and the darkness calls of ” they’re after me’ and it was the, “they’re after me” that finally broke my wife down. It was her shift to lay by her, we do it is shifts pretending that the other gets some form of sleep, in any case she comes into our room and I bolt up easily from edgy sleep to see her balling at our bedside, not sobbing, not hysterical, just unabashed balling. She says to me in quivering words “She’s so sick”/ Eric Seaman . More here .
