A couple kiddos went to bed with headaches last night. I had a feeling they may be coming down with something. Sure enough, at 4 a.m. Evan awoke screaming in pain. His stomach hurt and he had a high fever. Within just a few minutes he was throwing up. An hour later the exact same thing happened to Bailey. Looks like the sickness, that I was positive we avoided, has struck our household! I'm praying I can stay healthy and take good care of my family.
So far, today has consisted of a lot of resting, fluids, and homemade Chicken Noodle soup for those who can eat. As soon as their fevers come back down I am going to give Activated Charcoal. I took some immediately at 4 a.m. when I was feeling a little queezy.
The kids who are feeling good still are going to get started on some school work. It's already noon but if they just work on their individual subjects and do some reading they can still rest throughout the day incase they're the next stomach bug victims!
