Oh dear flu

Allison's fever was down. It broke Monday - we kept her home Tuesday as a precaution. Wednesday - back to school - 8:30am.

Wednesday 10:30am - call from Allison's teacher. She vomited while on their field trip. Can we come pick her up?

Yes, that mysterious fever that disappears for doctor's visits is back. Starting from initial viral infection we are now on day 10. Good grief.

Where was the field trip? To Discovery Land - to learn about rocks - at a church. Perhaps it was being in church that made her ill? If so - I'll blame Grandpa Jim.

The problem now is that she can't go back to school tomorrow and Friday is a half day. So, perhaps it's better to just can the whole week. Although she missed a good chunk of last week too, and next week is only 2 days long. So she will end up with attending only 4 days of school in a 3 week period. And getting her to do school work at home is no picnic.
