Barf-o-rama

Yuck. You can tell by the classy title here that Janel is not the author...

Jenna finally got over the stomach flu a week ago today after throwing up for a week. She started again today. Threw up a couple times this morning, and about a half dozen times since naptime this afternoon.

The good news is, Janel's mom flew in today. What a great way to greet her. She hadn't been here ten minutes and she got in on the clean up!

I had to leave early this morning to go to my internship so I was not around for the initial heaving. As I understand it, Janel got out of bed to go straight to the toilet so she could do her morning spew. While in the act, she hears Jenna say, "Momma, need to poo-poo."

Moments later she sees Joshua run by the bathroom door with a bowl in hand, "Jenna's throwing up!"

I'm not sure how impossible it would be to clean up someone else's vomit after you'd just lost your own, but I have HUGE sympathy for my dear wife. I can't imagine what she goes through...

If you have any spare sympathy, please feel free to send some our way...

p.s. So sorry I don't have any pictures to post with this post!

I'm personally glad you left the pictures out! Aliza had a night of throwing up and that was enough for me. I am SO wimpy when I'm throwing up and not much better when my kids are doing it. Janel must be about the toughest person I know. Praying for you!

My thoughts are with all of you...I can't imagine! Hang in there Janel! To be able to clean up spew right after you have done the same...well, you are my hero!
