The virus that others have been talking about on Mumsnet this week has been with our family for the whole of last half term. On return 2 of this of it with DS3, which makes him weak, raised temperature, cough endlessly until he's sick, the doctor just said by phone 'oh dear, it may go round the family again, not a lot you can do' so hasn't seen him since the beginning of all this. Have just changed 3 lots of bedding tonight, calpol, water, steamer in room, ventolin, 2 pillows...and am now at wits end. He's missed 2 x one week periods of school this term...and the rest of us seem to be stuck in the house endlessly at weekends/holidays as he's either ill or just recovering. WWYD. Any suggestions desperately wanted! He has a healthy diet but during and after each bout of this he then goes off his food and his immune system just seems to be less and less robust.
