Sick of being sick

Warning this is a bit graphic, if you don't like to hear about used food flying out of the human body, you may not want to read this. 

We have all had the rounds of some sort of stomach bug, it stated with the youngest, and it was not pretty.  Chocolate cake and curled milk does not make for very pretty throw up. It was a mess, everything in his crib was hit, he even had it in his ear. That's how I found myself in a shower holding a crying baby, in the middle of the night. Only having to strip all our bedding fifteen minutes later.  Yep, we brought him into bed with us, and that got tagged as well.  Between 12 and 3, we had washed two loads of laundry, changed the baby three times, made the bed again and he was finally asleep. One of the highlights was when hubs grabbed the tub we were using to catch everything, and splashed throw up all over me, at least it was mostly water by this point. But still it was gross.  It is amazing just what you will endure when one of your children are sick. My husband was so good with him.  It was quite sweet seeing him be so patience and gentle with him. 

Next it was my husbands turn, at least this time nothing got tagged, nor did we have any late night showers. But it hit him right before bed, and his night became a night of a 1,000 waterfalls. If you have ever needed to have a colonoscopy you know what I mean.  He was throwing up, as he was sitting on the toilet, it was coming out from both ends at the same time.  He ended up missing work, and just about the whole next day. I haven't ever seen him that sick. It was hard to see him suffering so much.

My turn happened yesterday, it came on real fast. My husband was working, but I was blessed enough to have him come home early,  he was able to nurse me, and take care of the rest of the house. But as fast as it came, it left just as fast. But I have to ask, have your ever been so sick your were afraid to go to sleep because you might mess your pants? Then, you are sick enough to not care if you mess yourself in your sleep?  That is what this does to you. I am just glad it is over.  I hope that no one else gets this bug, and who ever gave it to us, may the lord have mercy on your soul.

I have had quite a break in writing, I have been trying to figure out just what I want to say on here, what direction I want to take. I hate to come off as whiny, and bitchy, but at this point of my life I really am. But I also feel like I am not being totally honest, like I am still guarding myself, and my family. Maybe with time I will learn to let it fly. But at the same time is that needed? Maybe I just need more direction, and be more to the point. I guess we will have to see where this thing goes.  But I know for sure I won't become so messed up and disturbed as to ask the world if I should keep my baby or not, that chick is messed up, on many levels.

I hope that you have a great day!
