Re: PJ Wells (28) and his half-brothers, Ryan (13) and Jake (11)

If he is not happy he should go for it and do what it takes to
change the situation, including devoting more time for
education/training. He has a big responsibility on his shoulders
with his brothers, but he also has family (you) willing to help,
so he should accept that help if he needs it.

That is exactly how I feel about it, DB - it's just a matter of
him having to make that decision to accept some help.

Yes, and he shouldn't see it as being selfish. If he is not
happy with his job, then at some point that unhappiness is also
going to affect his brothers, even if he tries to avoid it.

I have Ryan and Jake tonight.
Let me say here that PJ is not always very demonstrative. I try
to point that out and help him work on fixing it, and I try to
give the boys extra attention.
Jake is sick right now. From what I understand, there are
actually two flu strains going around this year. Either Jake
has the more modest one, or he just has a really bad cold. He's
definitely not feeling good, and he is running a fever (but it's
stayed uder 102F so far), and he's still keeping down food
(though he's not real hungry). The best thing about these new
temple thermometers is you can actually take a kids temp without
having to wake them - though I did wake him when I checked a few
minutes ago, but he needed to pee, so I helped him up to the
bathroom, and we got him some drink and a few crackers and
cleaned his teeth before he went back to bed.
The thing is, if the kids ever think PJ doesn't care, just
because he's not as huggy as I am or doesn't say 'I love you' as
often, they just need to remember him last night. He wasn't
positive if he should leave, and he was so worried - I tried to
tell him that it was nothing serious, that it was nothing I
hadn't dealt wit literally hundreds of times, and that I could
have Dr. Dursley over here in twenty minutes if things seemed to
worsen. If I was ever unsure, it's obvious to me now how much
he loves and cares for those boys.

Aw I hope that Jake gets better soon and that is it just a cold
not the flu.
Hug PJ, he was all worried.
Thanks for sharing Jack.

Yes there are two strains (H3N2 and H1N1) of the flu going
around in 49 of the 50 states. Both are dangerous strains. One
just more dangerous than the other. In kids it activates their
adrenaline glands which puts their immune system into overdrive,
which causes it to attack healthy parts of the body. In the old
it works exactly the opposite. It shuts down their immune
systems and allows other medical issues to attack them. I have
three nurses in my extended family and one Oncologist.
The main thing is Hydration. The dangerous strain depletes
liquids from the body very fast. It can happen in 24 hours.
Most times it takes an IV to replenish fluids fast enough to
counteract this flu strain. (H3N2)
Please keep a real good watch on Jake.

That's pretty much always true.
Jake isn't really showing any of the normal flu symptoms, and
he's only asymptomatic of a cold by a slight fever, which I
don't think is completely rare with a kid.
Steve (Dr. Dursley) promised to stop by on his way home to
check, if I'm still worried ... As long as I feed him dinner.

Feed him dinner. You are the only person I know of that has a
Doctor that makes house calls.
