God, Not Again

On Sunday Jeff started projectile vomiting. He nailed the bed, the bathroom, and all of his clothing. He would puke and then tell a joke and laugh then take a nap. Lather, rinse, repeat.

On Wednesday the twins started projectile vomiting. In one sitting Nick nailed his entire outfit, the bouncy chair, and me. After puking he sat there grinning and giggling.

Last night at 1 am I did what would be the first of many, many mad dashes to the toilet so that I could projectile vomit. I've been doing so for the past twelve hours.

What I want to know is, why am I not finding the flu so funny?

-H.

Oh.... poor baby. Hope everyone is feeling better soon. No fun, no fun at all. (Although the whole joke thing and giggling is rather amazing... they seem to have a moment of feeing good before it all hits again, huh?) Here's hoping it is a 24-hour thing.

I'm so sorry to hear that, dear Helen. I wouldn't be laughing either, after what you just recently went through. Hope the whole family feels better soon.

I know it's not funny at all... but when you were describing the activities of your house, I thought of the Family Guy puke contest.

You guys simply cannot catch a break! Here's wishing it's just a one day and done deal for each of you. I guess that's the best that can be hoped.

Ugh, I am so sorry babe. I puked out my nose last week, so I feel for you.

It seems to be hitting a lot of people hard this season, and for some reason it likes to hit twice.

Hope it goes by fast-we only had it the first time for about 12 hours, and the second time just a few. Hang in there....

Didn't the last bout coincide with a visit from the Melissa and Jeff? Maybe the ex is sending the germs with them!

I never found the flu funny, even when I was near that age! Try to sleep-in this weekend and I hope you feel better soon.

Posted by: Ernie E at April 4, 2008 02:28 PM

Oh, no! I hope everyone feels better soon.

Posted by: Jen at April 4, 2008 02:01 PM

Oh no!! At least you could get the side-effect of giggling too, eh? :( So sorry the ick is back in your house.

Posted by: Lisa at April 4, 2008 01:23 PM

Oh no! Norovirus strikes again. You poor thing. I'd rather die than get that awful disease again. And you've had it twice back to back!

Oh no ... poor you!!! That is not fair ... :o(
