    Remember that children often get sick with illnesses, whereas adults tend not to. I have had flu twice in my life and although I felt physically awful, I did not feel nauseous or v* at all. Make sure you wash your hands often and that she is getting rid of all her tissues so noone else comes into contact with it. You'll be okay

    It's very, very rare to v* from influenza in adults or older children. I'm sure you'll be fine, even though a flu is beyond unpleasant. Hope you avoid it, and if not.. get some rest and hope you feel better soon!
