Sylvia, sounds like flu but which type? You have already been given good advice. Pusscat - the little one is in the right place, it is a nasty flu and thoughts with her. Son (who is of more mature years) went down like a log on 20 Dec had nearly 3 weeks in bed and is only beginning to pick up now.

thanks chris xx

My 9 month old grandson was in hospital with swine flu a couple of weeks ago. He was taken in after he'd had 2 febrile convulsions, caused by a sudden rise in temperature. He was immediately put on Tamiflu for a few days. He has slowly improved since. However, now he has a chest infection and is on antib's, poor little chap. Not suffering too badly with it though and still smiling his sweet smile, I'm glad to say. x

Hi Puss,
Thinking of your Little Niece,

Love and hugs

Teresa xx

thanks all cooper hope grandson gets better soon xxx

Wishing your niece a speedy recovery x

One word of warning, never try to bring down a temp with cold water, it can send it higher.... always use lukewarm, or tepid water, and let it dry naturally on the skin

Hi Puss,
oh the poor little mite to be in hospital for her birthday. Sending lots of positive thoughts for a speedy recovery and big (((((((((hugs))))))))

Cath xx

thanks mildred good advice i really didnt know that xx

thanks everyone too xxx

Wishing her a speedy recovery. xx

Hope she is soon lots better. At 1 she hardly knows what a birthday is so celebrating later won't matter to her, and it will be a good celebration to know she is well again.
