In Bed..........

So, I haven't seen any improvements with my eye yet, but it has only been 24 hours. Woke up to get everyone breakfast and owwwwwww! Everything hurt from my feet and toes to my fingers and head. Made bread and went back to bed. I have had a huge headache all day, my throat is scratchy and my ears hurt too! Totally feels like a flu!!!!! We all got our shots back in Nov. but it just proves that you can still get it. I must have what Emeline had last week. No fever as of yet, but I do feel hot and cold. I did have help from the hubby till the pm when he had to go to work. It is so hard to monitor and supervise the kiddies from bed. I do have to get up and get them food every so often. Emeline said, Mommy your eye is all red. Noah has been helpful in bringing me the thermometer and trying to take my temperature. They must not like me too well today because I am trying not to hug or rub my face against them, and don't really get it that mommy is sick and can't help tend to their every need. I will just try and think of happy times and our next trip to Disneyland next week! I am too weak and tired to write anymore. Going back to bed. :(

The flu vaccine is from the previous year's strain. So, yes, even though you got the vaccine, you can still get the flu. They say that if you get the flu and you did get the vaccine, your symptoms may be less severe than if you didn't get the vaccine. Also, the flu is viral. Antibiotics can't treat viral infections.

And the flu vaccine is only for a certain type of flu that does not include regular old stomach flu anyway....it's only for the more serious respiratory flu! Hope you feel better soon!
