Sickness

Parker stayed home from school a day last week because he had been up all night throwing up. I was not thrilled about him missing another day, but the poor kid was miserable. Matt was nice enough to stay up with him during the night, but I didn't get much sleep either, I hear everything that goes on in the house! I was so hoping that Parker would be the only one to get this horrible bug....but I was wrong. Parker was up Wednesday night/Thursday Morning and was feeling better by Thursday night so it was just about a 24 hour bug. No one else was feeling yucky on Thursday so I thought we were in the clear. The Friday afternoon I started to feel it coming on. I let Matt know, he was working a double shift the day. He came home about 6:00 to check on us and while he was home on a break Paige started to feel sick. So Matt called into worked and told them he needed to stay home and take care of me and Paige. Luckily they let him. I am not kidding when I say that within the hour of him being home, he got horribly sick as well. Then Paxten. It was miserable!! All 4 of us sick, with one bathroom! It was one long night and I think both Matt and I thought we were going to die. There is nothing worse that feeling so miserable, and still having to take care of other people and their illness. It was so hard!! We did make it through the night and the next day and by Sunday night we were all starting to feel like our selves again. I don't think Matt has ever been that sick since we have been married. So I know it is a bad bug when he gets it too and it affects him like that. Anyways, we are glad that is over with and we are back to normal at our household!
