Creeping Crud


This picture says it all. The creeping crud has hit our house hard. I have been nursing a sick little one and my poor hubby who is now luckily getting over it. Fever and the worst cold I have seen in years. Keep your hands washed as this is a doozy. Sadly, I am now coming down with it and I have not been sick in years but this one I could not seem to avoid. I am going to take my own advice to ease cold symptoms and head to bed. I hope my big girls don't get it but that seems likely given how bad this is. See you on the other side.

  1. It's been through here as well, the neighbors, the school kids, my son and I. Really makes you sick, but luckily is seemed to go away in 3-4 days (well, that's better than a week right?!) You rest and take Vit. C and I hope you feel better fast! Hugs ~ Mary

  3. I am in the middle of it right now. I was to bed early warm drink I did not do the warm bath but and in full blown crud. So I am locked in the spare bedroom with a mask to use for the trips outside the room. I pray my husband doesn't get it.

  4. I'm sorry you and your family are struggling with a bad bug. I am doing plenty of handwashing and when I go to the grocery I am, especially, careful.
    I hope and pray you are all back in the pink in no time.
    Blessings and {{{Warm Hugs}}}

  9. So sorry you are ill! Do you get flu shots? I just got mine but even at the vet's where I took the girls to get their rabies shots, the gal there said her daughter was home sick....it's everywhere! I hope I don't get it because I have no immune system! Good luck and hope you feel better soon!

  19. Sadly I come here today to catch up on what is new with you and see this little one all tuckered out, feeling poorly and trying to recover from a bad bug that has her down and out. It is terrible to see little ones sick and then to have a hubby ill and next thing you know it also has you in it's grip. The best thing is rest and fluids and hand washing and all those other remedies that seem a little too late, but important none the less. Hope you all get to feeling good as new soon.
