Stomach Bugs Are No Fun!

Gemma came down with a stomach bug while we were in Napa. Broke my heart that I could not be with her to snuggle her while she was feeling so icky.  We thought she was getting better but she got a little bit worse on Sunday.   She rebounded nicely on Monday and we thought we had escaped. But then on Tuesday it hit the rest of us.  Joel, Cole, and I were all sick as a dog Tuesday night and all Wednesday. Sadly, the neighbors chose Wednesday as a day to get their driveway redone.  All I wanted to do was lay in bed and die and there was constant cutting sounds and jackhammering.  Thankfully I felt a little bit better on Thursday, but Cole had to go to the hospital for some IV fluids and some antinausea medicine.  Joel was not much better--it hit him really hard.  Gladly, we are all feeling much better. The silver lining of the whole ordeal may be that Cole's appetite returned with a vengeance unlike never before. We are hoping that it gives him some confidence to eat better going forward.
