Ah yes I remember it well … when having that wonderful sickness bug that goes around every few years… and at the time my two youngest daughter’s having bunk beds … And the one on top bunk utters the classic phrase…
“Dad I feel sick” then does a fountain impression over the side of the bunk beds
My horror story is too horrible to describe. I will just say that a few years ago there was a wave of norovirus infections sweeping through the hospitals in England. For those who are unfamiliar with norovirus, it’s a highly contagious stomach bug that causes severe projectile vomiting and diarrhea, every 30 to 45 minutes, for about 8 to 12 hours. My wife and I were both working in different hospitals at the time, so it was almost a dead cert that we would catch it. We did, and so did our 1 year old daughter, all at the same time.
The worst part was trying to comfort our daughter, who had no way of understanding what was going on but knew she was very distressed. The second worst part was the cleaning up afterwards
It’s that time of the year. Our’s have really short hair but still it feels like i’m combing a fist sized ball of hair out of each cats fur every other day.
