Title: Alexys tested positive for swine flu today
Post by: cathryn on October 13, 2009, 02:58:09 PM
 after the last 5 days of being ill.

i had her to the Dr Friday and she tested negative.
i had her back to the Dr Sunday and she again tested negative.last night her temperature again went up to 104 and she had a terrible coughing fit about 3 am.

i took her in this morning and they tested her again and she tested positive for swine flu.

i know i give ya'll a hard time but please keep Alexys and my family in your prayers.

Alexys has an underlying condition of asthma so theyre keeping a close eye on her and have gave me several warning signs to look for which require me to transort her to the ER immediately.

again, please pray for her.

Thanks, Cathryn

Cathryn,

I sure will keep all of you in my prayers and especially Alexys.   Tell her that we ALL want her to get feeling better real soon so we can see some more pictures of her outside hunting and fishing.

Nothing any parent should have to suffer through.  Rest assured that my wife and I will have her in our prayers.  Our 11 month old grandson just got over it about a week ago.

PRAYERS SENT ASAP !!!  I know what its like to have asthma, I grew out of it at the age of 16.  When I was 2 I spent 4 straight months in a isolated air tent.   Asthma alone is bad enough yet combined with other problems is terrible.

Not our lil Alexy :sad:
They say this swine flu is the toughest on kids and the elderly. But Alexy is one tough cookie. She's showed us that more then once.
I'll be praying she kicks this thing in the butt. You hang in there too Ma......your probably a nervous wreck.

i want you to know that i really appreciate each and every one of you and your willingness to include my family in your prayers.

Alexys had been really bad off the last couple days but she does seem to be a little perkier this evening and her temp, while still up, isnt over 104 like its been the last couple days.Thanks be to God.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Shes a tough little girl and i love her and my other 2 kids very much and will do anything humanly possible to insure that we get through this illness intact.

My prayers include each and every one of you and your families that you may stay healthy. This illness is nothing to take lightly.

the doc checxke me out because i have been sick the last 3 or 4 weeks and she said that i was on the other side of this thing but that i did, in all probability have swine flu as well.it kicked my ass a couple days and i could barely get out of bed.i feel bad for Alexys cause i know how bad she feels.i wish it was me right now, instead of her going through this.
Id glady be sick all winter if shed just get well.

thanks again to veryone whos been praying for Alexys and my family.

she was alot perkier yesterday and her temp has stayed down.

either way im thankful shes feeling alot better.

Oh the Tamifu really works Cathryn.  :eyebrownod:
You be amazed at power of the heeling we've had around here. I mean...well...look at Alscalls. You should have seen him before we all got together and applied our power of prayer.

Granted he's got  a ways to go, but considering what we started with, he's coming right along. :roflmao:

WOW, you guys in Jackson County really got hit hard with the Swine Flu. My wify is the Tyler Co. school nurse, and she stays up on that stuff because of the extra curricular activities. She said the schools there really had a high rate of absenteeism.

Sorry to hear about Alexy. Prayers are with you from the Smith family.

thanks for caring guys. pitw, thats very sweet of you to have worried.

she went back to school today and was very happy.

she had been without a fever for almost 2 days and had finally rested up.

main reason i didnt keep her out another day was because she was feeling better and i wanted her to get all her makeup work so we could catch her up this weekend.

i didnt want her to be behind next week.

thansk you guys for praying for her.

im really honored to call ya freinds, even if it is just online...(even you Al)  :biggrin:

Great News she's doing better.  We just got some paper sent home from the school that they're going to be giving out the H1N1 vaccine.  That stuff is spreading everywheres.


Good to hear your feeling better Alexy !!!   :congrats: :yoyo:
