Hi Devon, Sorry to hear about your experience with Hini (as I refer to it) My school isn't too bad yet, I hope I don't get it. I use this herb oscillococcinum (under your tongue) along with echinacea and emergen-c 1000 mg vit c acai berry flavor dissolves in water and so far that has stopped any symtoms from getting worse and I stay healthy. The blogs are a great way to communicate, my sister in law has one when they were in Mexico for a year. The kids look great and you continue to give them lots of great adventures. Get well soon, love, Kathy
