Well my husband somehow managed to get by without getting sick but me and our 2 kids all have colds. The kids are getting better they just had minor coughing and sneezing. I think I must have the flu. I am still sick. Sunday night I was throwing up and yesterday and today I can not even talk. It is awful. I hope that I can get over it before I get the kids really sick. Is anyone else sick?

I have to say that since this winter has been so weird, I have actually taken a look at many vitamins and things on the market. One supplement that I have found to work quite well on my family is Airborne or the wonderful off brands that are out there. The minute you start to feel that little scratch, get started on it right away. There are lots of coupons out there to keep the price of this product down, which is great. They also have a children's version of it out now. Unfortunately, it won't help for the stomach viruses that are going around. But, at least you can attempt to keep you from getting the rest of the stuff.

I have had an ongoing cold. Friday night I was up with an earache..then sat. morning felt a little better but the earache would go from one ear to another...then I would take something and feel a little better then my throat would hurt....then I would get the chills.....but I don't have the flu...just some sort of bug that I can't shake!

That used to happen in my family. My sister or me would get sick, and then if she was sick, I'd then catch it. And of course my mom would be the one taking care of us, so then she'd get sick. But who never got sick? My dad. Not that I wish him ill, but the man never got sick!

Oh no! Well, right now, I'm not sick but I have a bad feeling I might get sick soon. Everyone around me in the office is sick. Some of my officemates have colds and others have bad coughs. Here in the Philippines, it's colder than usual so I think people are coming down with colds more easily than usual. Hopefully, I don't catch any bug. I'm taking vitamins everyday as a precaution. Hopefully you and your family get well soon! Take Care!
