[DaisyDebbie]

Sorry Chris HOpe you're feeling better soon

 

[Dan Murphy]

Sorry to hear that, Chris. Hope you shake it real soon.

I used to get flu almost every year. Three years of flu shots, three years no flu. I am sold on them.

 

[JohnTBap]

I don't feel so good, but I can't even muster a fever. Darn.

 

[Serena]

I'm sorry Chris. I do hope you are feeling better soon.

I'm not so bad, but I've got a cold and I don't like it one bit. I don't have time for this.

 

[Boots]

Sorry your got the flu! Hope you get better soon!

 

[DopeyRN]

Hope you feel better soon Chris!!

Guess I got that wonderful gift also. I fought it off for 2 weeks prior to Dis-con---Although I felt really tired at Dis-Con I just thought I was having too much fun-----. When I got home---it really hit---It's that stuffy head ,sneezing, coughing, aching---Am I going to live type of cold. Since I didn't have all my Christmas presents purchased I'm now the Queen of Gift Cards----Most everyone got a gift card or two. Hope you get feeling better soon. Take it easy----drink lots of fluids and just wait it out.

I hope that today you're feeling much better Chris and I can sympathize with you as I started with a sore throat on Sunday night and it went wild and now I'm sitting here with no voice left and feeling totally drained. It hasn't been a very good Christmas for me either. I hope you made the best of it!

I hope that you and your family have a HEALTHY and Happy New Year!

Oh, I'm sorry to hear you're sick!! My DH and 2 of my sons have had it within the last 2 weeks, one of my sons missed a whole week of school! I took a flu shot at work, and so far so good...no flu for me yet, but, I'm still spraying Lysol on everything just in case....hope you feel better really quickly!!!

I hope you feel better soon.

 

[Keli]

Eeekk, what a terrible thing to happen at the holidays. I hope you get to feeling better soon.

 

[inky dinky doo]

I hope you get to feeling better soon, Chris! It seems like colds and flu are especially miserable when you get them around the holidays. I usually get sick around Thanksgiving, so I know what you're going through. My advice? Cuddle up on the couch and let "them" baby you for awhile. You deserve it.

[Big V]

So sorry for you Chris. Hope you feel better soon!

 

[Ted and Holly]

We didn't get it for Christmas, but our Christmas guests have it and are coughing and sneezing all over our house! I am DETERMINED not to get it. I've been discreetly running around the house with Lysol spray and Clorox wipes. I shouldn't even be touching this keyboard as they have been on the comptuer. ICK!!!

Feel better!!!

Since I was apparently the giver of the gift (LOL) we should clarify that what we have had this week is the stomach flu (I had it last Sunday and was miserable), which really is not avoided by flu shots (which we all got). The good thing is that the stomach flu works its course much faster. We're just wondering whether DSD has had it while she is away at her dad's (she left Xmas afternoon right before 99 got sick).
