Nothing worse than hearing your brother isn't hungry for dinner! Almost exactly one year ago my brother while on vacation came down with a sv that eventually infected the entire family, all except for me. The minute my dad came down with it I insisted we go home at once, since we were on the last leg of our vacation. We did, and I felt a little bit better. I remember when it happened last year my brother was acting strange, didn't eat that night, then got sick later. I was so incredibly anxious throughout it all.

Now, tonight, he didn't eat dinner at all and he's been acting a little strange. He didn't even leave the house all day today. And I'm panicking. I don't know why I'm so afraid of catching it, I mean it's the middle of summer and I don't really have anywhere to be. But I don't know what to do.

How do you all deal when another family member could potentially be ill? Right now I just want to pack up and leave for a week, but I can't really do that.
