Well, as if the beginning of my week wasn’t bad enough, it only got worse. Most of you know how my Tuesday and Wednesday went. I may post a password protected blog with updates on that if I get a chance. If I do, I’ll email out the password to only my family and close friends so if you don’t get the password, please don’t be offended.
So anyway, Tuesday morning we took Carson for his one-year well check. He got 3 shots that morning and by noon he was vomiting. We thought maybe it was just a reaction to his immunizations and didn’t think much more about it. Two days later he was still vomiting…and so was Noah. It was obvious at this point that it had nothing to do with the immunizations, but was instead a horrible virus. By Friday I’d done about a zillion loads of puke towels and sheets, (sounds fun, huh?). We ended up taking Carson into the doctor because he just couldn’t seem to shake this virus. They kept us for about an hour while they observed him. We fed him a tablespoon of Pedialyte every 2 minutes and he was able to hold it down so they sent us home. We thought maybe the end was in sight. The end was in sight alright…diarrhea. Now the diarrhea had hit both Carson and Noah. Not only that, but now Reed and I were feeling a little puny ourselves. Hoping it was all psychological, we muddled through the rest of the day until the queasy feeling was now undeniable. We had it too.
