All this talk of H1N1 and my thoughts of RSV keep going thru my head with each cough and nose I wipe. Little Taylor just turned 5 months yesterday and has been running a fever since Wednesday evening around 102 F. Ashley had a fever too which appears to be gone as of this morning but her nose is still runny. I feel particularly concerned because of H1N1 with Ashley's underlying conditions and Taylor young age. However we went to the doctor this morning and he believes it just to be a regular run of the mill cold or virus. They are both still eating and not acting too miserable so I guess I need to relax a little. I'm not getting much sleep and keep checking for sign of respiratory distress just to be on the safe side. They need to get better quickly as Ashley has a fun Birthday party to attend on sunday and I'm tired.
In the mean time I can't wait for the flu shot to be ready this year.

Please give them a big hug and lots of kisses from Grammy & Grampy. Grampy, who is also fighting a chest cold and sneezy times, sympathizes greatly.
Make sure you get your rest and take care of yourself, Sherry. If you get run down, you could end up ill yourself.

I hope everyone will get better soon. This will be season of worries for sure.
Oh, H1N1 scares me too just because I have asthma. I can 100% sympathize with your fears with both of them. I'll keep you all in my prayers & I also hope you will be first in line when that darn vaccine finally comes out (personally, I think November is really pushing it LATE, but hopefully you all are first in line.)
