Worried about nephew..and us

[MinnieTink]

This morning we found out my 19 year old nephew has swine flu. He has severe asthma, and he has pneumonia. He is in ICU on oxygen. He developed symptoms on Monday and was admitted Tuesday. We were all at another nephew's 21st birthday party on Saturday night. My pediatrician called him "ripe" as in quite contagious, when we were with him, although he was symptom free at the time. I'm not panicking. But my little guy Ds3 was so sick last year with a virus and needed to be hospitalized. I just worry. It's a mom thing. My nephew who is sick spent the whole evening on Saturday entertaining my son. If you can spare a prayer for my nephew that would be great.

I will send a prayer for your nephew and so that your DS doesn't get anything.

My DS, 2.5, had a wicked virus back when he was 8 months old. Scared the life out of us. He has been sick since Thursday and we took him to the ER last night. So far we think he had a mild case of the flu and now is dealing with a chest cold, seperate issues. His lungs were clear which is the reason we went to the ER in the first place.

Scary, only natural to be concerned . Sending healing prayers for your DN's recovery and positive thoughts that none of your family gets sick. Keep the faith ^i^

Hugs and prayers to DMickey's little son also . Our sweet DGS was very sick with flu for over a week and thankfully is well now, so share everyone's concern.

Prayers that your nephew down-grades to a stepdown unit from ICU. More prayers that your family remains healthy.
