We've got it in our house. My wife and I are both sick as dogs.

have had the upper respiratory thing for a week now. Feels like there is a huge weight on my chest when i breath. I have coughed so much I am sore, and my lungs sound like I am drownding. Ran fever several days with it as well.
There will be a day....

What happened?? Did the parent's let it go on too long before seeking treatment, or is the flu that deadly with kids?

pediatric cases - infants most likely, little immune systems couldn't fend it off.
