Flu, Quarantined, Sickness

My wife has come down with the flu so I’ve been quarantined for seven days.  That means seven days without going to the gym.  I’m glad I went ahead and bought that treadmill.  One of my daughters is here while she’s on spring break, she’s also quarantined.  In fact, her college has made the determination that school is canceled until further notice or at least until this virus is contained.  We have no idea how they’re going to do graduation.

My wife was diagnosed today and was given several shots.  I, as well as my daughter, was given a prescription for Tamiflu which I’ve already taken one.  Right now I feel fine.  My wife is not feeling well.  She has a sore throat, low-grade fever, and a dry cough.  If her condition worsens she has the paperwork to go get tested for the virus.  The doctor does not think it’s anything more than the flu.  I know that if I get the flu, because of my health conditions, I’ll probably be admitted into the hospital.  That I do not want.  I’d rather stay at home and let it run its course.  I know I”ll get more rest that way.

I hope everyone stays well out there.

It’s been over a month since I’ve been in the hospital.  I count that as a good thing.  I’m still very fatigued, short of breath, these nitro patches are giving me headaches and I get fairly dizzy when I stand up from a sitting position but other than that I’m feeling pretty good.  I have all my kids home at least for a little while so that’s making me real happy.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.

It’s going to be a wet weekend but I’m going to make the best of it.  I’m cooking for a small group for a pre halloween party.  I’ve got to get up early so that I get set up before they close the campground down to traffic.  The whole family was going until moments ago when one of my daughters decides to get sick.  My wife may be going to take her to the doctor in the morning if she’s not any better.

The wife came down with something yesterday evening and she’s not doing too good at the moment.  I slept in my sons room last night because I can’t really afford to take off sick.  With my immune system the way it is I will probably get it anyway.

Do you see the fisherman?
