[quote=Anonymous]DH and I both have COVID 19 and influenza A. I also have walking pneumonia. We have 2 kids. One is 6 and self sufficient, but the other one is 3 and has autism and epilepsy and is prone to self harm, destruction, and running away from us. He’s also extremely hyperactive and has zero interest in screens. Like, NONE.

We’ve had fevers of 103-104. DH was hallucinating last night from delirium. We are both very seriously ill.

Our nanny took our 3 year old to her house on Wednesday because we were sick and has had him ever since. I said I’d come get him tonight but I don’t think I can do it. I can’t even get myself to the bathroom alone.

I want to ask our nanny to keep my son for the weekend, but I’m so scared she will say no. Im willing to pay her upwards of $1k/day. I’ve reached out to other babysitters but nobody will take our son, and definitely not for a weekend. Everyone is concerned since he’s been exposed to covid and flu. We also need someone to take him away from our house and not everyone is set up for that.

Any tips for how to navigate this?
