    Hope he is better soon. Lots of liquids, rest and something for the headache...about all he can do. Tamiflu after he has had the symptoms longer than 48 hours will do nothing for him. But you should be taking something like Echinacea with Goldenseal and sucking down the Vitamin C to build up your resistance.

    'Flu can be so debilitating and makes you feel like death warmed up. :( Fingers crossed the symptoms begin to lessen soon for Kevin Glenda.

    I hope Kevin gets well soon. I will send some healthy prayers his way. You stay healthy though, we don't want you getting sick.

    I'm so pleased to hear that Kevin is recovering Glenda. I just hope he hasn't passed his 'flu onto you.

    He stayed away from me.I made a huge pot of chicken noodle soup for him and he was enjoying it today as today and tomorrow are his days off.
