Jon’s home again, having come home all and stuffy and runny of nose…that flu that persists, showing a variety of symptons in all of us. The entire household is still off our respective games.
Jon went to bed sounding like we had carefully packed his sinuses with cheeses from around the world. But I don’t think he’s terribly contagious, he’s quite alert, and he’s goin’ back tomorrow, barring unforeseen major illness.
And then March Break will start on Friday.
“Barring unforeseen major illness”–talk about tempting the fates: In the middle of the night Jon started getting really deep, barky coughs and really horrible asthmatic-sounding breathing. Visions of hospital emergency rooms were starting to dance through our heads (so we weren’t thinking too clearly at 2 am). Upshot: No school today. He’s breathing okay this morning, and his coughs aren’t too bad. Maybe tomorrow we’ll get ONE day in at school before the break, or is that too much to ask?!
Go Jon! Work it! You can get that extra day of March break if you reaaaalllly try hard!
