It's been a @%$&# of a week.
DS woke up 2.30am on Sunday morning vomiting, and as the day progressed, developed diarrhoea. This continued on Monday, and Tuesday morning I took him to the dr. A sample was taken and on Thursday the verdict came back... campylobacter. Which is a notifiable disease. So now I feel like the worst mother in the world. I've no idea where he's picked it up - could be daycare, could be some chicken we had, could be some bird poop he's got on his hands etc. DH and I have escaped it so far. Which is just as well. Ministry of Health is supposed to call me, but so far I've not heard from them.
My poor little boy has been lying around the house hardly knowing what to do with himself. He does seem to be on the mend thanks to the antibiotics.
Now I need something for the lethargy thats getting me. Sleepless nights, helping my folks move into their new place, low iron - it's all catching up on me.
aww Penny I am so sorry to hear about your DS poor wee poppet. You make sure you take care of yourself too. You have a lot on your plate at the moment by the sounds of it.......Slow down......
ReplyDeleteOh man, you aren't kidding about your week. I agree with Janine, you need to be looking after you too. Big hugs. And phooey to the Min of Health, they rang Mum and queried her after Dad contracted campylobacter after he had been in hospital for a week. They couldn't see how Mum wasn't to blame for that one!!
ReplyDeleteOh you poor thing!! Sounds awful. Hope he is feeling better soon (and you get a bit of rest!).
ReplyDeleteOh no! Poor little boy :( I hope you manage to get some rest this weekend!
ReplyDeleteHope your DS is better soon. You sound like you might need some TLC too. Hang in there!!
ReplyDeleteOh no, take care of yourselves. Hope you get rest and no more *bad stuff* happening this weekend.
ReplyDeleteOh you poor thing - that's the last thing you need. Hope your son is on the mend & you're feeling ok.
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness! so sorry to hear tim had to go thru all of that (and you too, poor mama). i hope you and dh manage to stay healthy.
