Despite flu shots, our family couldn’t escape this season’s bug. Both girls have tested positive for a type of influenza A; Zoe has been sick since Tuesday and Avery since Thursday night. That explains her bad morning on Thursday: She wasn’t feeling well!

The good news is that their doctor said the shots prevented them from being even more sick – and Avery was able to go on Tamiflu to hopefully lessen her symptoms and shorten the length of illness. (Zoe missed the 48-hour window.) In addition, they’ve been pretty great patients. The bad news is that it’s been a long week and their (now low-grade) fevers are lingering. Hopefully they’ll be ready to go back to school sooner rather than later!
