Sick Again
Joshua and I are sick again, this time with a stomach virus. The only good thing is that James has not gotten it and Joe, so far, only has a cold. Neither of us has been able to eat anything in more than 36 hours. We both saw the doctor this morning and he said that Joshua is dehydrated so if I can't get him to keep any liquids down by tonight we will have to take him to the hospital. I am trying REALLY hard to get him to sip Pedialyte every 20 minutes because I cannot spend one more night in the Pediatrics ward at MSA hospital - we had our fill of that last month with James!!

The doctor told me that Joshua, Stephanie and I all have the rotavirus and that it is spread through oral contact with human feces ... let me go throw up now! *shudder* (Which begs the question ... what did we all touch to get sick on the same day?!?)
And now Joe has it too ... at least it's skipped the baby!
ooooooooooh! you poor things!
you're still in our prayers.
get better soon! poor josh. it's always harder when your kids are sick, isn't it? you just wish you could bear it all for them.
I imagine that everyone being sick (except James) must be ABSOLUTELY horrible. Its so hard to care for little ones when you are sick, and then to worry about them...but I wonder if you are more haunted by the question of what horrifying thing you all touched. I'll never forget when you fell in the washroom trying to avoid touching something...was that something I was supposed to say out loud...feel better soon.
Thanks for the reminder of that, Marci ... I had completely forgotten! >:|
