Another one sick

It's 10:38 and I'm sitting here with SL barking like a seal. She's running a fever and I'm afraid the cough sounds like croup. We just got done sitting in the bathroom with a hot shower running. The warm mist did soothe the cough momentarily but it seems to have come back as soon as I got her back into my bed. I was able to get some Tylenol in her about 9 so I'm eagerly awaiting it to kick in and start bringing the fever down.
She did seem out of sorts today, and a little moodier and more sensitive than usual. I guess I knew something was coming.
On the other hand, E has fully recovered, and Big B went to the docs and received a prescription for his sinus infection. OK, I'm a little confused now. It's April 23, and we are still battling illnesses. Isn't this suppose to be the time of year when we kiss sickness goodbye until next season?
I have heard that the flu season hit later than usual and the flu shot only provided about 44% protection against the strain which was prominent this season. Even if it didn't provide the full immunity, I'm glad we all were vaccinated. I'm still convinced that a little help is better than no help.
I do have more pictures to post but will attempt those tomorrow. SL is now falling asleep and once again it's time for me to turn in as well.
Until the next time...
