My husband went to work totally fine on Wednesday. He came home with runny nose and sneezing. We figured that was normal, he was out in the west Texas desert. Thursday, he got hit with fever, chills, headache, and fatigue. I had him take an at-home test because we are highly involved at our church and we were supposed to go to service that night. He tested positive, and had to go through all the red tape for work, which he didn’t want to do, but he gets paid time off because he has the positive test. Friday, he slept all day because of the fatigue, had more fever and chills. Today is Saturday, and he has been awake and upright all day. He has played some video games, painted some miniatures, changed diapers for our kids, and been pretty active. He has a slight cough, minor fatigue, slight muscle soreness, and his temp dropped to 95 and he got really tired, but hot tea brought his temp back up and he wasn’t tired anymore. He thought he heard a rattle in his chest while breathing, but his pulse ox is 98.

Now I’m watching one of our boys who looks like he has a fever, but doesn’t. He’s thrown up twice, complains of stomachache and headache. I haven’t tested him yet, and may not.
