DYK Thread for October





**For those uncertain to what a DYK thread is......**


DYK stands for Did You Know or Do You Know


It is simply a chit chat thread where every thought is written in sentences and each sentences starts with the initials DYK---it is fun, entertaining and a great way to meet the board members


Below are some fun DYK blinkies--feel free to snag any if you like:

Yick!! I NEVER let my kids double-dip! :P

I think you do have to actually get SICK with something to build immunity, otherwise you wouldn't have antibodies, but I could be wrong

Michael actually has pretty good immunity---he only gets sick about 2x/year, which is good considering how much he's exposed to

However, he's been freaking miserable all day today :(

I don't usually Lysol-Wipe my house that much either (Aside from the bathrooms!), but with Michael, Matthew and now Tessa sick, I felt the need

Michael is great about constantly washing his hands, and Matthew is pretty good, and he will cover his mouth with his arm when he coughs and sneezes, but I have to stay on top of Tessa and chase her with tissues

I am still holding tissues to her nose and telling her: "Blow all the way to GREECE!!" LOL

(My mom used to tell us that when we were little)

Good luck with clinicals, Cheryl!!

I remember well when my husband started his clinical rotations in med school, and how nervous he was

You have an awesome husband!

Matthew has to have teeth pulled too (all baby teeth) to make room for his big teeth

He was supposed to get it done this past Summer, but then the orthodontist wanted to wait to see if they came out on their own, but they haven't

My DH is also very supportive and it makes all the difference in the world

I nearly dropped dead of shock today when he told me that he would call in sick tomorrow since Tessa is sick and can't go to school, so I wouldn't have to miss school

He never ever EVER calls in sick for himself. I can recall maybe one time in the past 5 years that he called in sick, and that was when he had pneumonia; so I thought it was nice that he'd do that for me

I heart my hubby :)

Both my boys are going to need braces

Probably the girls, too, but they haven't lost any teeth yet

Is that weird for 6 years old??

Thanks, Gina

He's just really, really congested and coughing, but he'll be OK

At least it's not the flu!!
