I'm miserable. The past two weeks have been the worst ever. #2 had two days recovered from his six day tummy bug (we thought) but has been sick again since Wednesday. The vomiting in the middle of the night is wearing us out! It doesn't help that I'm sick with rattly breathing and a nasty chest cough that is not improving at all. So we're off to the doctor (for him) and to get my antibiotic prescription filled. I am exhausted and experiencing extreme cabin fever. The little guy needs to be close to the bathroom so even the school run is a problem for us at the moment. So there has been a lot of TV watching and lying on the couch for both of us. I wish my Mum and Dad hadn't moved back to Christchurch!
Thank goodness for a number of friends who have been taking #1 to school for me, and to his after school thing, loaning us DVDs (we have enough now thanks), returning library books (including paying for the one that got puked on!) and buying us bread and bananas for the BRAT diet that we've put #2 on. Apparently Bread, Rice, Apple and Toast (BRAT) is the best diet for a gastro bug... let's hope it works soon! Here he is making himself a banana toast sandwich for breakfast. Hopefully we'll be back on track next week! Or else I think I might move out ;o)

What a ghastly time you are having, feel pretty helpless down here. Hope the bug goes away real soon and you can all get back to normal. Your continued blogging is admirable - I hope it helps relieve some of the frustration you're feeling and the doctor will have a magic potion to clear awy the bugs.
Much Love to all Grandpa
No magic potion sadly... just time... time away from kindy and other human beings. We did pick up my antibiotics and popped into the supermarket for a couple of essentials which was important :o)
Oh man, let me know I fi can help out any more?? Have Max or something??
