at clinical, the phone call
came: Cordy is sick.
No one wants to come
home to find your child has just
thrown up on your couch.
Another bug, caught
from preschool most likely. I
hope we don’t catch it.
Some kind of stomach bug has been spreading across Columbus, and some ill child at Cordy’s school was kind enough to share the virus with her. She’s normally a very healthy child – it takes a lot for a stomach bug to slow her down. Yet tonight she fell asleep early and refused to eat, worrying it would hurt her stomach. This kid never turns down a meal, so she must feel pretty miserable.
Now I must pray to the stomach bug gods to spare me from her germs. There are plenty of bad Mother’s Day gifts out there, but I think that might be one of the worst. Actually, I seem to remember this entire Mother’s Day virus scenario playing out like this last year. Damn.
To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:
1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.
2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). DON’T sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.
3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top.
REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week! I will delete any links without haiku!
Blech. Beware a rotovirus…those are nasty.
Ew. Sounds like not any fun. At all.
Yuck, sorry to hear that! Hope your weekend turns out to be bug-free. Feel better, Cordy!
Poor kid 🙁 I do hope she feels better soon, and that the buck stops there.

Another beautiful EPCOT sunset
Joining in the fun again 😀
Hope the little one gets better, and few others get it! 🙁
Poor Cordy. Get well soon little one!
Hope your little one feels better soon. This is my first time participating. 🙂
Sorry Cordy’s sick and hope the rest of the family manages to stay healthy. Happy Mother’s Day ;–)
Hugs and blessings,
Hope you stay healthy!! Have a great Mother’s Day 🙂
Let the handwashing begin!
Oh, yuck! I hate stomach viruses. Hope Cordy is feeling better soon and you stay bug free yourself.
I hope she feels better soon.
Yuck. I hope it passes you over.
And yes, I am going to be at BlogHer. And yes, we shall have a few glasses of liquid confidence together. I’ll be the one tripping over my feet and blushing a lot.
I hope Cordy starts feeling better soon…and I hope no one else catches the virus. I am still trying to get over a cold. It’s been a week and I still can’t breathe.
Hang in there!
Happy Mother’s Day, too!
