So today is the first day of the 4th week of school. Brittany is sick AGAIN! This is her 4th day that she has missed because of a stomach virus. She was sick the 2nd day of school, then she was sick 2 days last week, now today. It's a little beyond ridiculous. She's been asleep each time I've checked on her. We almost made her go to school this morning because even though she felt awful, she didn't have a fever, but 10mins later she threw up so she went back to bed. Each time she's stayed home from the same thing, although she had a fever before. We've washed her sheets and Lysoled everything. No one else has gotten sick, hopefully no one gets it this time. I don't think she threw out her toothbrush from last week, so maybe she just reinfected herself? I'm also wondering if she's stressing herself out to the point of making herself sick. She's taking all advanced classes and working part time, and she internalizes everything. Not sure how to find out if that's what she's doing. I thought about taking her to the doctor so they could do blood work but Hubby didn't think there was a point since it's a stomach virus.
sick kid,
