THE ROTO VIRUS

I really hope none of your children ever ever ever get the roto virus. Abby got it on Monday and then Guy and I got it on Tuesday night. I have had food poisoning before and it is just about the same as that. Abby only got a mild case and she never threw up. She has been very clingy but very sweet. I have gotten plenty of hugs this week... which I really needed. To top it all off Guy flew to Phoenix yesterday for his oral board review. He seems to be feeling better. I am really tired of being tired, but I would much rather get the more severe case than Abby. Anyway reason for posting is they do have a sort of vaccine for the virus. You should really ask your pediatrition about it.

OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the roto virus is awful!!!! we had the 'stomach virus' 3 times in camp's first year (thank you day care =))- i really think that it was roto virus 2 of those times- not positive b/c we didn't go to the doctor=== and it was the same deal- he was kinda feeling bad and clingy and a little spit up w/ fever... then BAM!!!! chad and i are losing 11 pounds in 2 days! really, i did! then i gained it back of course... but all of this to say, i feel your pain! hope the board review went well and that y'all are all better and well hydrated!
