Hi Chris, Congratulations on surviving the flu and your trip to the children's museum. We are planning to go there in the near future after Ryan's next trip to see Dr. New. I truly believe that the severe salt wasters get the worst of it. When my son throws up or has diarhea or even perspires too much we have a real problem. Getting fluid into him becomes the most important thing. Have you ever tried making frozen pops out of the Gatorade or Pedialite? That helps with a fever too. We were just wondering, did your son have the flu shot this year? He may be too young at three years old. If not, would you consider it next year? For those that are very young, they administer it in two doses sometimes which makes it a little easier for them to tolerate. I'm sorry to hear about how you spent your Thanksgiving, but I'm sure glad everyone is feeling better now. I hope the rest of your Holidays are filled with joy and good health.(:>)LynnT
