Its back to school and we are all getting sick. So we are having plenty of water soups and tissues. Have you gotten sick yet and how are you treating it?

The kids have not gotten sick yet, but I am getting a little bit of a stuffy nose and I had a stomach ache the other day. My ears feel funny today too. Kind of itchy. I have not done anything for it yet.

Sy 5 year old was home 3 days this week and one day last week for being sick. He didn't get sick before school started so I know its from all the exposure to the other kids. he is still coughing and it is day 4 plus he has a stuffy nose and has been sneezing. I sent him to school today anyway because he missed so many days already.

It is hard for them to miss so many days that they can fall behind. I know there are lots still getting sick at our school. Take care.

jees sounds like me last year! I had the same thing at the same time! It was terrible. Just sweeping the floor I lost 2 pounds of sweat from loss of oxygen. HOPE you get better soon, I know your pain!

We've already been through the colds this school year. I still have it and my daughters had it for about a week. I took them to the doctor and he told me he has been really busy since school started with everybody getting sick. I just treat mine with herbal tea and lots of vitamin C. The girls get cold medicine.

I am suffering with cold now and am about to take a steam cure now. I dont know what it is called exactly, but I take a pail of hot water and blanket, keep my self under the blanket with steam to clear my nostrils. Its a local cure and it worked many times for me.

I have heard of this and have done it myself. Helps with lung congestion too. Thanks
