leaving tomorrow and DH & I are sick

[traci]

I cannot believe this. We both have a stomach virus along with the typical chills, headache and nausea. We were supposed to drive to St. Louis today (approx. 3 hours from our home) and catch a direct flight tomorrow to Orlando. We are way to sick to sit in a car for 3 hours. ugh I hope this passes soon. I don't want our vacation to be ruined. Please convince me this is only a 24 hour bug :guilty: :guilty:

It's our first family trip and we have been so excited. What a bummer. okay gotta run to the bathroom now....

:grouphug: We'll all cross our fingers for you. Hope you feel better in the morning.

[dazzled]

:grouphug: Sure hope you're feeing better by morning.

[Meezers]

You will feel better by the morning...if not treat the symptoms. Better to be sick at Disney than not be at Disney at all :)

[traci]

you are making me smile :)

[NJOYURLIFE]

:grouphug: Hope you are feeling better for your vacation!

I'm sorry you aren't feeling well, but please don't get on a plane if you are still sick and expose all those other people to your illness. Sometimes the carriers will work with you to postpone for a day or two if you are ill with an obviously contagious bug, call them and ask.

Frank but brutal question:

Which end is it coming out of, mouth or butt???

I am very sorry that this has happenend to you...

[MrsNick]

Feel better! (and take something!)

[traci]

Butt :rotfl:

[MOMOFMNM]

I am sure it will pass, a tummy virus is really spreading around these days YIKES!! My 5 yo got over hers Saturday...she was so sick I said "do you feel well enough to go to Disney?" She said with big teary blue eyes, "well, no actually...good thing we don't leave til Wednesday!!"

:rotfl2:

Hope the kiddos don't come down with it...yuck!!!


Feel better soon

[Kaybee]

Usually stomach viruses are the 24hr kind. Sure hope you feel better. That is a major bummer to be sick on your way to disney!! Stay on liquids till things settle down. Good luck.

Have you tried Pepto Bismal?

It has an ingredient no other stomach remedy for diarhea has.

I take it in tablet form and it is ALWAYS with me on trips for work or play...

It has reversed some really bad runs I had contracted, mostly on international trips where I've eaten something bad...

Give it a try if you haven't...

Hope you get well soon!

[MINNIEBOWSER]

:wizard: I hope you get well in the next few hours!!!!!! :wizard: Best of luck to you!!!

[traci]

The pepto is helping. I finally tried that about 3 hours ago. Still feeling yucky but not as bad. DH is doing much better! I am counting on this being a 24 hour thing. No fever so I think that is a good sign...I also hope my little babes don't get it. I would be sick for a week to keep them from feeling like this for one hour!

Thanks for the good vibes and thanks for letting me vent. Who else but you Mickey fanatics would understand??

[Merriwind]

Feel better - stomach bugs are usually short-lived, so hopefully you'll be better today. Think of it as a quick pre-Disney weight loss program. Sick, I know, but you've always got to look for the positive.

Stay hydrated, gatorade is great. I know doctors recommend things like Pedialyte, but gag me! They are so salty that no one at my house can get them down. Saltines are good, especially if your stomach is gurgling. Jell-o, toast, etc. Hydration is most important though, much more than food. Hope you're better by the time you read this.

Enjoy your trip!

Just curious how you are doing this morning... get well prayer sent your way!!!! Enjoy your trip! :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Oh, I am SOOOO glad to hear you were all better for your trip! It seems like just yesturday you said you were sick. I cannot believe you are back already! I am looking forward to hearing about your trip.

[klj27]

So glad to hear that you both got better quickly! Hope you had a great trip.

[dazzled]

:banana: So glad to hear that you both got better and that you had a great trip. :) How did the kids make out on your trip? I hope they didn't get the bug.

[traci]

The babies didn't get sick!!! yippee! Aside from the typical little kid meltdowns it was a fun trip! We just did things at their pace. I am just happy we were well and the trip wasn't ruined :banana:

[mimimischief]

hi..im leaving in 3 days and came down with an ear infection...and im flying..hopefully the disney magic will cure it...sorry to all the other sicklings

[MOMOFMNM]

sorry you are sick!!

take your meds now and you should be feeling better in three days, you could ask your dr for some non drowsy pain meds for Disney if you think you might need them. Take some tylenol before the plane and chew some gum!! Feel better asap!! :sunny:
you will have a great time :earsgirl:

[sandiegosusie]

Imodium...works like a charm! Good luck and take the Purell with you!

[traci]

You should pm Captain Blue Sky....he posted on page one of this thread. He's a pilot and could possibly offer some good advice - he did with my bootie problems :rotfl:

I hope your ear ache goes away before you travel. This thread has good vibes though - it will rub off on you :goodvibes
