Flu test negative
And the one for strep was, too
Yet fever lingers
Five days since those tests
Sarah still seems weak, puny
The cough keeps hacking
Container at side
And a water bottle, too
Ped thinks tests were wrong
Flu? H1N1?
Time for another swab set
Attitude is good
If it is swine flu
She can dodge vaccination
Happy to be sick
Tonight at dinner
Rubbing his head with his hand
Darren has headache
So it often goes
In our loving, happy home
Twins---they tend to share.

Boo, I hate when kids gets sick! Hope she's on the mend soon.
oh no!! Poor Sarah. Hope the fever breaks soon and Darren isn't hit as hard...
My son stayed home one day but had a bad headache with other very, very mild symptoms. I have no idea what he had. Did they both have headaches?
Sure hope she feels better by the end of the weekend.

OH I hate the sicks but I do love good poetry!
Only you could do this with such finesse.
Oh yes, don't they always share! Especially anything causing a fever.
