Had to pick up my daughter from school yesterday. She had a temp of 103. She's doing better today - hurray Tylenol and anti-biotics.

Try to keep your child away from antibiotic... Mostly Antibiotic doesn't gonna help for viruses it will work for bacterias only and try Motrin it looks like draping temp better than Tylenol.

Ever since my kids started school someone always seems to be sick from December till May. I love it that a lot of parents treat school more like a day care facilty and send their kids when they are sick because they can't stay home to care for them in turn getting the other kids sick who in turn bring it home and infect the whole family.

like a flu?? i almost got the flu but i use the neti pot everyday twice a day. i have no idea if it's ok for children though. but it's really really good for colds, flu, allergy, sinus infection. otherwise i would've been sick for like 5 months.

As someone who works for a school, I personally think it is a horrible. We have at least 4 or 5 kids a day that get sent home within 15 minutes of arriving. As for myself, I accept that I will be fighting off something or other till late June when they all leave. :(

No neti pot yet should probably get on that.

Stress I guess more than usual since I'm working 48 hours a week + 9 credits at grad school, but I'll have my m.b.a this May so it was worth it.

Other than that only thing I did was quit smoking for past 3 months.
