This new Swine flu is not fun at all. Anna is now sick and on Tamiflu. Sometimes she still runs very low fever, but her cough doesn't sound getting better. She will probably miss another week of school. I will be taking her to get labs done this coming Wednesday, to make sure that still staying good.
