I’m so sorry. It’s so awful. I had a big Christmas party with an elf band and Santa on Saturday night and half the people were puking the following evening (including my kids and me- my hubby managed to escape it until last night). It’s nasty!!! I hope you’re feeling better. I’m laying here in bed with my kids still not feeling the best.

Sorry back at you. Mine lasted the requisite 2 days, then was just weakness for the 3rd day. By the fourth I wanted to eat and by the fifth I had red chile and beans. Yay. Doing OK. I think people pay for this. It's like a purge. If I don't overdo, my stomach and gut feel better than before the norovirus.

Not so sure about "great" but it is a diet of sorts.

Here's a dark thought. Imagine an outbreak on a cruise ship. AI YI YI.

I don’t even know what that would smell like. Hell. Literal hell.

I read that the virus can live on surfaces for up to 2 weeks. I think I better change my sheets etc. I did change my pillow cases, but..... My caregiver is sick so it's an effort for me to change my fitted sheets, etc. Onward and upward.

Yes, I read the same. I went on a cleaning frenzy after the first night (no clue how I had energy) and bleached everything, washed all the sheets, etc, and then about died. Then we had more family members join so I’m sure I should probably do it again. Or just tell people not to come to my house for two weeks…
