The sickness just won't leave us alone..... It's never ending.....sick, get better, get sick again....

 

There are just too many surfaces to decontaminate...... We are washing and drying in hot dryer clothing,bedding, towels, blankets constantly...... Running everything through dishwasher on sani cycle.... Lysol spray on all I can possibly spray it on. Opening bedroom windows when I can.....really too cool right now.

 

I cannot possibly sanitize everything every sick person has touched......

I feel your pain. We had something go through before Christmas with fevers, chills, aches, and dry cough, so possibly influenza. Now we have nasty fevers and croupiness heading through the house. My 2 yo is at the doc with DH right now to get steroids to help him deal with the croup. I slept with him in our unheated sunroom last night because it was the only way to get enough cool air into him to calm his breathing down.

Well, I basically spent an entire day walking around the house with a can of lysol for all doors, doorknobs, light switches, throw pillows, lamp switches, remote controls, computer mouses (mice?), handles on appliances, tops of washing machine and dryer, and many more surfaces that occurred to me as I went around cleaning up the aftermath. I also cleaned every single surface of the bathrooms with a cleaner containing bleach--twice! Don't forget the outdoor handles even on the outside.

 

You have my deepest sympathies. :grouphug: Hope your family is feeling better soon.

9 out of 10 of us had bronchitis and some of us had the flu right after that... all starting Thanksgiving week. The farmer spread chickety doo so I could not open windows!!

We got Lysol to spray and wipes for kids to wipe light switches, doorknobs, wood on beds, and I cleaned off all of the computers, kitchen counters, some windows and condiment bottles, salt, pepper bottles. I had both illnesses too. After antibiotics, I am taking probiotics and using olive leaf as needed ( liquid and nasal spray). I couldn't even do much of the laundry as tired as I was... nursing our sick baby through it all, resting, filling up vaporizers and cooking, it was rough!

 

Get well soon!
