Hi Ella, I'm so sorry to hear that you have influenza! That's so unlucky. Your mom told me that you can't have any visitors for one week, so I thought I'd send you an email. I guess you'll still be online, even though you're sick, right? I ahd influenza last year and I remember how horrible it was, so I feel really sorry for you. I had a splitting headache, and I felt hot and cold all the time. I just couldn't get comfortable. I didn't want to eat anything either! Is that how you're feeling? Well, you missed an English grammar test today, and I suppose you'll be very sorry about that. Don't worry about class work, though; I'll bring you all my notes when you feel better. Let me know when you're ready for a visitor! I miss you. Fiona
