Plagued with illness.

SO starting February 4th, we had sickness enter the Mears house.

 It started with Julie Ann running a fever on Laura Beth's birthday party day = trip to the Urgent Care. It was Strep. Julie Ann started her antibiotics for this nasty illness, which is apparently a little uncommon for a 9 month old to get strep. Then, February 8th (4 days later), Laura Beth ran 104 fever= Urgent Care again. Turns out, she has no strep and no flu. Hmmmm. Doctor gives Laura Beth Antibiotics because she has been exposed to the strep. Then, 4 days later February 13, Steve runs fever=Urgent Care visit. He is diagnosed with Strep. Then February 15th (2 days later), Laura Beth finishes antibiotics and starts to runs a low grade fever again=Regular doctor visit. Doctor states she is fine (didn't check her temperature and didn't run any tests) and "she is not contagious." Laura Beth goes to school the next day. Friday February 17th (yes 2 days later), Laura Beth begins to run 102 fever= back to the regular doctor. The doctor states she thinks it's viral and nasty cold. I suggest a flu test just to be sure. AND Laura beth tests positive for flu. Now, Laura Beth is on Tamiflu. February 20 (3 days later), Laura Beth wakes up with a ear ache and Julie Ann didn't sleep the night before = another regular doctor visit {are you calculating the co-pays just on the dr visits?}. Both girls have an ear infection in one ear. They both start antibiotics. February 22 (2 days later), Julie Ann didn't sleep hardly ALL night and had some weird breathing= regular doctor visit. Julie Ann tests positive for RSV today. Julie Ann starts breathing treatments today, which is added to all the other medicines.  

WOW, what is that saying? "When it rains, it pours." 

We are praying for healthy bodies.
