Thanks Mommybeetx, for remembering me a few days ago to post! I have been out of commission due to a houseful of bad germs going around. DD (3 1/2) came down with a very high fever (105.6) in drs office last week and was diagnosed with pneumonia. She started having a fever earlier that Sunday but only 101-102. by Wednesday she was on the couch and very lethargic. They did a chest x-ray and found she had pneumonia. After a $30.00 bottle of Zithromax later, she is doing just fine. I ended up having a fever/cough/cold myself at the time and finally I'm feeling better. My other DD (5) had something similar to this a month ago and kicked it with Ceclor after a few day. I guess it's that time of year! They are both in preschool and have never been exposed to a lot of this stuff. Plus I know most kids do not wash their hands very well, adding to the spread. Cross fingers and hope we are done being sick! I have been online everyday, however, to check up on things here at the board, I enjoy reading everyones post as it helps me get through my day. God Bless! Ann

Ann,

I hope things get better in your home.
No fun when all of you are sick. I hope once it is gone, it stays that way!
Glad to have you back on the board.
