{Bad stomach bug, anyone?}

I have never seen such bad stomach bugs going around as i have this year. We got a HORRIBLE stomach bug over the summer. Worst i had ever seen. Jaydon puked every 15 minutes for 6 hours, along with diarrhea. No exaggeration. Gavin puked every 15-20 minutes for 12 hours straight. Seriously. Tanner wasn't puking as much as Gavin was. Lucky boy. Then everyone else in the family got it...me, shane, g-ma, g-pa, aunt, uncle, cousin. Terrible. Well, we were in Kansas over the weekend and Gavin got sick. Sunday he was feeling OFF all day. Finally the puke came on Monday morning at 1 a.m. I went and set up a bed for him down by the tv and slept on the couch by him for the rest of the night. He puked all the way up until about 5 p.m. That is about 14 hours of puking. He heaved so hard that he created this weird looking red rash thing on his face. I felt so bad for him. Well, Tuesday he was fine, but i could tell his stomach still wasn't right b/c he would take one or two bites at dinner and breakfast and that was it. Wednesday the same. Thursday he is sick again. Except here comes the explosive diarrhea and one more bout of puking. Now he just wants to sleep. It's really really weird. Tanner had it the weekend before but he only puked a couple of times and it was over. What's weird is that it used to be that Gavin got over his illness a lot quicker than tanner. Tanner always took longer. Now its the opposite. Interesting.
My best friend is coming into town today and we are supposed to be going to watch her dad get married, and we are leaving tomorrow. So, i really hope he feels better by then otherwise i won't get to go....boo. One more thing....why does the sickness always come when something fun is going on? Or when we are ON vacation. That is the only time we EVER get it. Stinks man.
