OT~~~Please be Careful!

There's a virus roaming around and it's brutal. My dh has been sick, along with 90% of his company. I have a friend in the hospital due to dehydration.

Keep those hands washed and avoid people who don't feel well.

Here's to a Happy and Healthy New Year!

Oh unfortunately I know alllllllllll about this. Been ill since Friday, started off with a slight upset stomach & went downhill fast. Friday's dinner was Jello, yesterday's was chicken noodle soup & today I can finally get some semi-solid food down. Pepto-bismol has been my friend this weekend. Feeling much better now but I gotta tell ya it is one swift but brutal virus. I hope no one here gets it.

Sorry you guys are sick. Thanks for the warning. I am staying locked inside and lysoling anyone who leaves and comes back, just for safety measures!

That MRSA is awful in our area, so, I am a real stickler in my household anyhow. I also happen to be terminally ill (have lupus and MS) and the last thing I need is some sort of infection due to my immune system being compromised. Thanks for the warning!

MRSA doesn't cause upset stomach or vomitting. It is a skin infection, so you should make sure that you keep your hands washed at all times. But, it sounds like there is a stomach virus going on. i'm not trying to be smart, just had to add my two cents.

I guess I shouldn't of added my two cents...

Anyway, I just hope everyone gets to feeling better.

Your 2 cents is welcome stef37! I understood what you meant and I think most germaphobes will as well. I try not to go crazy worrying about germs and using disinfecting things all over the place since I don't want to help build superbugs... but when DH raked his arm open on the corner of a filing cabinet at his office I insisted he go take a Purell bath!

Autoimmune issues are not fun... I hope you feel well and stay strong. Thanks for passing those good wishes all around! l
