Talk about a SuperBug

So the flu bug has hit the Koehler household...and hit it hard. Ayden was the first i think to get it. He missed a day of school last week because of a stomach bug. He was feeling better the next day and back to school he went. I had been having this horrible headache for days, but went on trying to talk myself into feeling better. Then Monday at work, my headache got worse and I voluntarily went home when they asked. I have to admit that I had ulterior motives. Adam and I had plans to go out to dinner with some of his friends in town. We went to Benni-Hana, a Japanese restaurant where the chef threw a shrimp on my plate. You can imagine the look on my face....I tried really hard not to offend him, and asked if Adam could have my share of the shrimp appetizer. He politely did so.
But back to my ramblings... the next morning was when everything came to a head. Autumn came out of her room and said she thought he was going to throw up.... and then proceeded to do so. My head was so bad that I thought it was going to explode! So we both stayed home. I made it until that night, and then it really hit me hard. I will make a long story short.. I ended up in the ER for an IV and some anti- nausea meds. I am still home today with a woozy stomach and headache. I have missed basically a week of work, but they are being really nice about it. Now we are just trying our best to make sure no one else gets sick. We have had complaints about headaches and/or tummy aches, but they still want to go to school. :O)
