As most of you know Tim works the night shift at Maverik so he comes home around 6 a.m. on Tues. and Thurs. he donates plasma and doesn't arrive home until about 8a.m. He went straight to bed I was already up in hopes to get ready for our day. Tim had to work at Target at 5:30p.m. but he wanted to get a run in before heading to work. At about 4:14 p.m. I went back in our room and woke him up and told him that he would have to get up now if he wanted to go run before work. He said his head was pounding and he was freezing and he wanted to just sleep another 15 min. So I gave him an Ibuprofen and checked his temperature. HOLLY COW 102.6 I told him to call work because I didn't think that he could go in. Well if you know Tim you know he HATES calling into work and missing a shift. So he reluctantly called and told them that he would not be coming in unless his fever was down in the next hour. Well 5:15 came around and I went in to wake Tim and get his temperature 103.6 yeah up a degree. So No work for Tim. So Tim also had his shift at Maverik at night which started at 11p.m. So Tim called and told them the situation and the manager said please do NOT come in unless it goes below 100. Then tim started throwing up blood and coughing blood. So at 10 I went back in and woke tim to give him his next dose of Med. well his temp was still 103.6 so he called them and let them know. I then made Tim his favorite soup and sandwich and some of his favorite Apple Juice. He ate a little and then told me he just needed to sleep some more. He once again spent some time throwing up. So he drank a glass of water and fell back asleep. I woke tim up at 5 to take his temp and give him more medicine and his temp. was at 102.7. So it was a little lower but not much I told him to sleep until morning and I would take Jaerick to my mom and then take him into the doctor (which tim hates as well) if his temp didn't go any lower. Well I lied. His temp. was at 99.9 at 9a.m. I gave him 800mg of Ibuprofen but I still felt like he needed to go in. ( because of the whole blood stuff) Well turns out we go in and his temperature higher then ever 103.8 and he feels horrible. Well doc takes a look at him checks him out and says you have H1N1 oh and Strep! Yeah that's right poor sick Tim! So we now have antibiotics and he is take a double dose. If it isn't all gone in two days then they will put him on Tramamine or something like that(?) So we will see how it all goes! Jaer and I are staying at my parents until he gets an entire 24hrs of antibiotics as per Tims request. We hope our baby boy doesn't get it too!
oh my word! First Tyler, then tim.. .hopefully no one else in the family carries it out! - Carianne
