sat . 🔥 “PLEASE PRAY FOR OUR SWEET CHRISTOPHER”: A FRIGHTENING NIGHT, A SPIKING FEVER, AND A FAMILY RACING AGAINST TIME 🙏🏻
Last night was one no parent ever forgets.
Christopher fell asleep earlier than usual—but by around 10 p.m., the calm was shattered. He woke up burning with a 102-degree fever, weak and clearly unwell. Within hours, the temperature climbed higher. By morning, it had surged to 103 degrees, sending his family rushing to get him seen as quickly as possible.
The diagnosis came fast—and it was the one they feared most: Flu A.
Christopher feels miserable. Exhausted. Overwhelmed. His fever drops briefly, only to spike again—hard and fast—leaving his family anxiously watching every number on the thermometer. With severe asthma, Christopher isn’t just fighting a common flu. For him, this virus carries far greater risks.
Doctors made the call to start Tamiflu immediately, hoping to shorten the illness and prevent dangerous complications. Time matters when lungs are already vulnerable. Every hour matters when breathing can become a struggle.
And the worry doesn’t stop with Christopher.
Because in this home, there is another fragile child—Creed. Based on past experience, Creed’s doctor will most likely begin him on Tamiflu as a precaution, even before symptoms appear. That’s what this family has learned to do. When one child tests positive, they act fast—because waiting can cost too much.
This isn’t just the flu.
It’s fear.
