Sharing Bugs

I'm afraid that we brought a 'bug' with us from NC to OH. Andrew had a high fever and was under the weather for the first couple of days we were home. Unfortunately Chaz, Ashlie and Joey all got sick as well. Everyone seemed to have the same symptoms and be sick with the same virus. After a couple days Chaz and Ashlie got better while Joey's headache got worse and he still had a high fever. My mom took him to the ED and he was admitted and diagnosed with viral meningitis. He's there now for his second full day and will most likely be there for a couple more days. There isn't anything they can do besides letting the virus run its course and treating his symptoms. His biggest complaint now is his headache and it seems that they finally found the right drugs/combination of drugs to bring him some relief. Here's a picture I took while Chaz and I were visiting him tonight. Poor Joey! Please say a prayer for him that he recovers from this virus and gets to come home soon.
