Love those Hogs!


Well

I have the swine flu.

UGH!

I started feeling bad late afternoon yesterday and this morning I still was so I went to the doctor first thing this morning and sure enough. So I'm in bed and I have to stay away from people for a week. Good times. My sweet husband is home taking care of Harper and washing clothes and playing Mr. Mom. I'm so thankful for him. I want to hold Harper so bad but I don't want to make her sick. Another blessing that she weaned on Sunday. (and she is still doing GREAT!)
I'm praying, praying, praying for all my friends and all the kids who were at my house yesterday that I don't pass it to them. I would never have had them over if I knew I would be sick.

SO I may be M.I.A. for a few days. And it looks like Halloween is cancelled at our house. Luckily Harper is not old enough to know. We'll still dress her up and take her picture once I'm better.
And Sunday is our six year wedding anniversary - romantic! ha!

I'm just thankful it's this week so I can be well when we go to El Salvador in 10 days! Praying Scott doesn't catch it!

P.S. I saw a P.A. who was so sweet and I was sitting wearing the mask when she walked in and she said "Are you Kelly from Kelly's Korner?" ha ha! And she was a Ouachita grad too! Such a small world! :-) I just had to laugh!

Wash your hands and stay healthy!!!!!

Get well soon Kelly! I will be praying for you!

Newlywed Next Door said...

Oh no! Hope you feel better soon! My co-worker had H1N1 last week and thank goodness, none of us got i! Sending prayers you way!

Unknown said...

I think it's because you made Harper wear that pig costume yesterday. :)

So sorry you are sick. Hope you're better soon and that no one else gets it!!

Casi said...

Oh, I'm so sorry you're sick! My husband works in healthcare (the NICU specifically) but picked up an ER shift a couple of weeks ago and almost immediately came down with swine flu.

He had fever for five straight days and just felt totally crummy so I'm praying you have a much milder case. Get well soon, cyber friend! :-)

CinderellaMommy said...

Get well soon!!!!

Karen Needham said...

Praying that you recover quickly!

Rhi said...

UGH. I had it about 2 1/2 weeks ago. I still have a bit of a lingering cough. I hope you can get lots of sleep, that's the only thing that seemed to help me. Well, that and daytime television ;-)

Joanna said...

OH NO Kelly! I will be praying for a speedy recovery!

Kelsie missed her first Halloween too...She and I were sick with the flu {the regular one of course}.

OKGardners said...

GET WELL QUICK ... my sister (age 72) went to St. Francis in Tulsa with pneumonia last night, so take care of yourself and keep Scott and baby well. I'll pray for you.

Grecia said...

Praying for your speedy recovery and that Scott and Harper stay well! I know you're bummed about Halloween, but, like you said, Harper won't know the difference this year so you can just make up your own special day for her when you feel better:)
Take care and get lots of REST!

Summer said...

Oh Kelly,
Hope you get well soon! Praying for you and praying that your hubby and little miss Harper doesn't catch it! She still is the cutest little piggy ever! When you showed a sneak peak of her on your blog yesterday she was just a cutie as always!
Hope you feel better and hope it is a mild case of the swine flu!

Unknown said...

Oh Kelly! Feel better soon...praying that no one else gets sick and that you have a speedy recovery!

Need to stop the "Go Hogs" chant, see?!?!?!?!
Just kidding!! Feel better soon!

Abby Johns said...

I don't know if I am the first to say this, but...

...it just occurred to me that Harper is dressing as a pig for Halloween and you will have Swine Flu for Halloween. Kind of strange.

I hope you feel better soon!

Brooke and David said...

Feel better soon!

Kristie @ Me and My House said...

All 3 of my children have had it this week. Thankfully the symptoms have been pretty mild and short lived. Seems it's running it's course in my house in about 3 days. I pray you get over yours quickly as well.

Also, my doc says that once they are running a fever less than 100 (without meds) and are not coughing we can go back out. For my son that was 4-5 days after the start.

Just Add Walter said...

oh no!!!! hope you feel better soon!!!

Anonymous said...

Uh Oh!? Hope your feeling better soon and I just had to ask... my curiosity got the better of me... Did they actually test you(and all of the above people if they want to answer) to know for sure its H1N1? I know around here they're saying it takes 11 days to get the results back so Im wondering if thats a) not true or b) a canadian thing :)

Liz said...

oh, sweetheart! i'm so sorry! feel better soon!!!!

Melissa said...

Awww feel better! I hope no one else catches it!

purejoy said...

hope you're feeling better soon. the trick is to get on tamiflu within the first 48 hours. sounds like you're all over it. . . and rockin the mask, girl!! get better soon!

Mama Bear said...

Oh no... Hope you feel better soon!

They treated me as if I had swine flu last week but it was just the fever from miscarrying our son staying in the hospital for 3 nights...couldn't wait to go home.

Elisabeth said...

Laura said...

Feel better soon!! :)

Britni said...

Oh no! I'm so sorry Kelly! I hope you are able to get some good rest & have a speedy recovery! I just said a short prayer for you to feel better soon! :) Rent some good movies & enjoy relaxing! ~Stacy

Preppy Pink Crocodile said...

Oh no- feel well soon!

Also - and I know this is dumb but I surely am not the only person wondering each time you make mention- how do you pronounce your school? The three vowels is throwing me through a loop.

Melissa's Thoughts said...

Praying that you feel better soon. Drink lots of fluids!!

kelly said...

bless your little heart! being sick with kids is the pits (i know, i've got three!). the last time i was really sick was on valentine's day so i get the "romantic" thing all too well. take care of yourself and feel better soon!!!

You poor thing!

I had it two weeks ago, so I understand how you're feeling. Rest up and get well soon!

MFuglseth said...

Hoping you get better soon! Sending prayers!

Gracie Beth said...

Feel better! I am praying Harper does not get sick!

The Petro Family said...

Happy Anniversary to you also! My six year is Sunday too!

amy said...

Kelly... you may want to pump and give Harper your milk in a sippy cup. That way, she gets your antibodies from the swine flu and will most likely NOT get it! If you still have any milk supply left, I would HIGHLY recommend it! Hope you feel better soon! Praying Scott and Harper stay well!!!

Lesley At Sarita Farms said...

I hope you feel better soon!!!!

Jenna said...

Someone I heart dearly just got moved the very tip top of my prayer list!

Woo Pig Sooie? How about: NOOOOOOOOOOO PIG FLUUUIIEEEEE!!!

WinD said...

Total bummer! Get well fast!

Melissa and Cas said...

Praying for you to have a speedy recovery and that no one else catches it!

Britt said...

I hope you get well soon and that little Harper stays healthy...

wow though, i can't believe you still look as good as you do in the picture... if i had the flu... or any sickness at all, i'd be makeupless and in my pjs!

Rebecca said...

A little swine flu humor - I'm sure you've heard it already, but I still laugh at it a little every time I do -

What the difference between bird flu and swine flu?

With bird flu you need tweetment and with swine flu you need oinkment!

Hope you are feeling better ASAP!

julie & joe said...

Oh my! My husband had it and was down for a week. I went around the house cleaning the tv remotes and door knobs and the phones. Luckily, I didn't catch it.

Hope you feel better soon!

Makila said...

Praying you get better and Scott doesn't get it before your trip!

Sending you virtual hand sanitizer! :)

This is my first comment, but I read your blog all of the time. You have a beautiful family! A funny coincidence - I'm a blonde named Kellie whose best friend is a funny brunette named Lauri. I think we're all about the same age, too. :)

Traci said...

Oh Kelly- I am so sorry you're sick. Hopefully you'll recover soon. Happy Anniversary- take the time to get some good rest.

Get well and rest, rest, rest! Hope that Scott and Harper stay well!

Awwwh, Sweetie...so sorry you are sick. I will be praying for you & your family. My hubby was exposed to the Swine Flu last week & had to start taking anti-virus medication right away. So far, we both are fine. I pray you feel better soon !
Happy Halloween & Happy Anniversary !

Oh No Kelly,
Bless your Heart! My family and I are praying for you and all of your family. Get Well REALLY SOON! God Bless! - Randee

Linda said...

Kelly you even look cute when you are sick! Earrings and all! Some people would drag themselves in to the Dr. office in sweats and messy hair and slippers,...but not me, I always have to put on make up and jewelry anywhere I go! ha! ((smile))

You are blessed that your hubby could stay home and take care of Harper. I hope they don't get it.

Get Well Soon! I prayed for you.

The Hords said...

Bless your heart. Hope you feel better soon!

Kelsey712 said...

I hope that you get to feeling better soon. My husband had the swine flu and with tamiflu, he was only down for three or four days. He missed three days of work and then was able to go back to work on the fourth. I didn't catch it, even though his doctors refused to put me on tamiflu also.

Good luck and just be sure to take it easy. My very active husband didn't leave our easy chair for several days!

Crystal said...

I hope you feel better soon!! Our anniversary is Sunday also so congrats. It will be our 18th.

Mary said...

Sorry you have The Swine as we call it. Hope yours is not a bad case! Glad to hear Harper is doing great on bottles! My kids LOVE formula once I wean them...I call it their milkshakes :)

Anonymous said...

So sorry to hear your sick! I hope you have a happy Halloween and Anniversary even though you’re under the weather. Feel better soon!

Anna said...

Hope you have a "light case" and that you are better in no time! Thinking and praying for Mr. Mom as he has lots of duties to fulfill over the next few days...GET WELL!

Jocelyn said...

I'm 33 weeks pregnant and just got the swine flu shot yesterday (thank goodness)! I hope you feel better soon, and that Scott and Harper stay healthy!

Kristin said...

Oh no!! I hope you are feeling better in no time! It's everywhere!!! I'm hoping we don't get it here.

Val, Brax and Harper said...

well, does this mean you don't have to chase down the vaccine then??? i hope it doesn't last long for you! get well soon.

amy said...

Oh no! I had it 2 weeks ago and felt MUCH better 2 days after being on the medication. I hope you have a speedy recovery!

Jenny said...

I pray you start to feel better soon!

Jen S. said...

Sorry to hear you're sick Kelly :)
Feel better fast! I hope Scott and Harper don't get it.
You'll be in my prayers.
Love,

I am sorry that you are sick. Man it stinks to be sick when you have little ones.

Hey I bought that shirt after I saw it on your blog the first time. Love it soooooo much!!

Sherri said...

I'm so sorry to hear that. I will be saying BIG prayers for a speedy recovery (and for Scott playing Mommy). It just seems to be everywhere now.

melissa said...

At least you look cute. Just proving swine and plaid go hand and hand.

Hope you get feeling better!

Lemonade Makin' Mama said...

We all had it too! It went away quickly, and my man never did get it... I'm so sorry!! Hang in there girl. (It's a great excuse to just lay around and read People Magazines...)

Melissa said...

Bless your sweet heart! I'm so thankful to see God's timing all over this with Harper being weaned and your mission trip. Bathing you and your family in prayer!

Kathryn said...

Prayin' for you to get well asap, and hope your hubby and little one stay healthy!

Barclay Kathryn said...

You look great for having the flu! Feel better soon.

caknitter said...

Oh no! poor thing...with medication I'm sure everything will be fine. If Harper got her swine flu shot, she should be fine too, right??
At least you still have your sense of humor. :-) I'll be praying for a speedy recovery for you.

Rebekah said...

Praying for you. I know how hard it is to be sick and have a baby to take care of. Bless your heart!!! Scott...if you are reading this...you are the best! Kelly needs your help and I know how much it means to her that you are stepping in.
PTL for weaned babies! It is a hard separation, but it will make your life lots easier! Hang in there, friend!

Chari said...

so sorry!! I'm praying no one else gets it.

wow, you look good for having the flu!! I'm always white as a sheet, dark circles under my eyes and hair all nasty!

Marie said...

Kelly, praying you get well soon and that little Miss Harper and Scott do not catch the flu, can they or the friends you had over yesterday get some medicne to help keep them from catching it, I worry about the little ones just as you are doing I know,MY DIL works at a drug store and said they had the flu shot but me and my husband are "to old" That sucks

Erika said...

I'm so sorry you have this! Not to scare you, but I came down with H1N1 on September 28th and I am still sick. I got better for a little while, and then it came back...guess it wasn't ever really gone. Now I have infections in my lungs because my body was so weakened by the virus. So...get well soon...stay in bed...don't try to do too much...and get better! (((hugs)))

Tiffany and the Munchkins said...

That stinks. I'm so sorry you have come down with the swine flu. I know several people who have had it and it is rough. I feel for you. I can only imagine how hard it is to not be able to hold and love on Harper. Get better soon honey. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers in hopes that you get better soon and none of them come down with it in the meantime.

Ruth Ann said...

Hope you feel better soon! I've been really sick too for almost a week! It's soo hard being sick and having to take care of little ones! Happy Anniversary! I will be married 6 years as well on Sunday too! Hope you feel well enough to celebrate!

rae said...

I'm so sorry!! I have had it this week, too. And now I have pneumonia. Be careful!! I feel worse now than I did earlier this week when it was just H1N1. I hope you fell much better soon!!

Diana said...

Praying that you get well soon. My girls just got their H1N1 vaccines this morning. Hoping we can keep from getting this yucky virus.

Hope you feel better soon :)

It is good that you caught it early. I hope you are feeling better soon. How nice that your husband was able to take off of work to be home with Harper.

Michele said...

Oh Kelly ~ that stinks! I hope you're feeling better soon. I still need to get my flu shot and with my daughter delivering my grandson any day, I don't want anyone sick at my house!

Rest up...big hugz to y'all!

Hester 5 said...

Just remember that positive influenza A test does not automatically mean swine flu!!!! It takes several days to get the test back and confirmed before they know for sure!!!! Doesn't really matter because it is all treated the same but since you don't know for sure it is better to keep people away. I was positive for Influenza A and it came back as NOT the swine flu. If Harper has had the flu vaccine and you don't have the swine flu, she should be fine.

Brittany said...

Get lots of rest and drink a lot of G2!! I had this about a month ago-lasted for about 7 days. Take care!!

Girl with the Curlz said...

Oh you poor thing. Rest up and get healthy soon. Happy Anniversary to you and Scott.

Sorry you're sick. :( Hope you get better soon and no one else gets it! :)

mustard seeds said...

I hope you are well soon. Praying that no one else in your family gets it. My 2 year old grandson has it this week too. A funny thing happened to me last week. I am a nurse in Same Day Surgery, and I was admitting a patient from your area. I asked her if she knew Kelly Stamps, and she said your name sounded familiar. Then I said from Kelly's Korner blog, and her face lit up. She said, "yes, I love her and follow her". Small world, huh?

Lisa said...

That is awful! Hope you are on the mend and feeling better soon!

2SetsOfTwins4Me said...

My boys supposedly had the swine flu last month but from info i have gathered, docs are just telling patients that its the swine flu when the rapid flu test comes back positive for the regular flu.

The test for the swine flu is not a rapid test and therefore has to be sent off for the culture, which takes many days.

Here in Oklahoma, they send the culture to OKC.
Its a very expensive test so its not just randomnly done in docs offices.
They wont even test for it unless you are hospitalized,etc.

I don't even know why docs are telling patients its the swine flu.

But anyways, I do hope you feel better soon

Kristen said...

Feel better soon! Praying for a speedy recovery and that the rest of your family stays free of all illness!

Jennifer said...

I feel so bad for you. I am so sorry that you caught that...but I am praying that Harper and Scott don't get sick. Get lots of rest and take care of yourself!

OH NO! I hope you are better soon and no one else catches it!

Amy and Kyle said...

Hey Kelly! I'm so sorry to hear that you are sick girl! I'm praying that you feel much better very soon and that your husband and Harper don't catch it! Take care of yourself! Praying for you from Georgia! :)

Holly said...

Oh no! I hope you feel better soon and that Scott and Harper don't catch it!

Early Congratulations on your anniversary too. :)

Too funny that you got recognised at the doctors! I think I would fall over if that happened to me!

Btw, I like your blog title. It took me a few seconds to get it. :P

Praying you feel better soon! I called the Health Dept. yesterday to try & get my H1N1 shot b/c I'm over 30 weeks pregnant now & they were out of them! I'll have to try again next week...

Julie said...

Hope you get better soon!! And how do you stay away from Harper?? THat has to be the worst!!

(Freaky in a good way about her being weaned--just in time!!)

Lena said...

Hope you feel better soon! I had it 3 weeks ago. It is very hard dealing with other people in the household because you don't want to get near them! As long as you wear your mask whenever your in a shared area of the house, and keep the door closed to where you are it should be okay. Praying that your husband and Harper stay healthy!

Homemomma said...

To test for the swine flu it takes about 10 days for it to come back, I don't know why they have people coming in with symptoms and telling everyone that they have swine when most likely it is the regular flu.

Haven't you noticed that since we got the swine flu, nobody is getting the regular flu?

Hope you feel better!!!

Anonymous said...

So sorry you are sick. I just got over swine flu and it is nasty stuff!

Christy said...

Hope you feel better soon. I saw a report and the drs said that the masks are pointless because the virus is smaller than the pores in the masks, so they just escape right out. (Just to save you from having to wear a mask!)

God Bless hon

Shoshanah said...

How awful! I hope you're starting to feel better!

Judy said...

I hope your doctor prescribed Tamiflu for you. I had swine flu a few weeks ago. I was feeling back to myself very quickly after starting it - I'm a believer! I had a cough that hung on for about a week, but the fever, achiness, chills, etc. went away quickly. I was only in bed for a day and a half. Hope you're feeling better soon!

Kathryn said...

OH NO!!!!! I hope you're feeling better soon!!!!

Oh...dear...
Wash your hands and use hand sanitize...often! Happy Halloween ~Natalie

oh no...I hope you feel better real soon!

Marianne said...

I just had it too. Wasn't as awful as I thought it would be. My doc gave me Tamiflu and I think it helped a lot. Get well soon!

Taryn said...

Just curious, how did your friend get this infection. Like to be on the look out. Never hurts to learn from someone else. Thanks!

Immeasurably More Mama said...

Oh Kelly! I am SO SORRY to hear this. I'll pray for a speedy recovery and protection for Scott and Harper. Hugs to you!

Anonymous said...

Sorry you are sick! At least you still have a sense of humor about it! Since you aren't going to be able to do much while you are quarintined, you should ask someone to buy or check out this book for you: Let Me Hold You Longer by Karen Kingsbury. I thought of it the other day when you wrote the post about "lasts." You may have already read it, but if you haven't I know you will love it. Be forewarned: GET TISSUE! :-) Get well soon!

Marci said...

I'm sorry to hear you are feeling bad. Thank God you have a good husband to take care of Harper for you. Get better and I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Lori said...

You'll be over this sickness very soon with all the prayers lifting you up. We all love you and certainly wish you well. Poor you, Scott and Harper. What is she going to do with her momma!

Kelley said...

I hope you get well soon!

heididh33 said...

Yuck! I had it too but I did not look half that cute the day I went to the Dr! :) Praying Harper and Scott stay healthy and that you recover soon! It's no fun!

Audrea said...

Girl-I hope you get to feeling better soon! Praying that Harper and Scott don't get it and you have a speedy recovery! Did you take the swine flu shot?

Anna said...

Hope you feel better soon!! I just got over the swine flu. It was no fun.

Erin said...

Kelly, so sorry you are sick! Get well soon!

The picture of you in the mask is too funny though! I know that's probably what we all need to be wearing, but it certainly makes for a good laugh :)

Hi Kelly. I hope you get better soon! My oldest daughter had swine flu in our just past winter here in Western Australia. Luckily it didn't pass on to the other four of us in our home so praying that Harper and Scott don't get it.

annalee said...

Feel better soon! I know this sounds odd, but I was just looking back at your older posts in October 2007 and you were sick today too! Sorry, that is just probably a little bit too much... Ha!

Kelly, get well soon. I have been in bed since Tuesday...the worse part is the fever, the muscle aches and the headache. Just get lots of rest.
I'll be praying for you!

I just survived the dreaded swine flu. I hope you feel better soon. I'm so glad you got it before your trip and not during!

Oh goodness, hope you start feeling better very soon! How strange is it that Harper's costume is a pig and you have the swine flu? Craziness! Hopefully, the rest of your family will stay well too.

Lindsay said...

Oh man, rest & fluids!!! Feel better soon! Prayers for a little angel to drop some get well dust over your bed tonight! :) That sounds nice, huh?!

Kimberley said...

Hi Kelly,
I was in line behind you, we spoke briefly. They said I had the same thing, and sent me home with a mask too. The funny thing is, I felt better today than I have all week. So maybe the worst is over. I had some friends question how they could diagnose N1N1 so fast (?). Regardless, take care and I hope you feel better soon!

Hope you have a mild case and feel better soon. I am headed to my OB for the vaccine this morning (I am 15 weeks pregnant). If someone else gets it, don't be too hard on yourself. You did not have them over with symptoms.

I have it too, so I know what you're going through. It's hard to not being able to be near your little one. But I will say that swine flu looks way better on you than me.
