Plague at 2332 Ardmore

Arthur goes down on the evening of Oct 4. 103 temp. Starts throwing up 2 days later. Never hits toilet or bucket, encases house in vomit. misses Tuesday-Friday of school.

Leonard has weird head cold all week and then diarrhea starting Saturday Oct 10

Stephen goes down Oct 9 throws up all over kitchen rug. Throws up a couple more times, but notable successful in target puking. This is a great life skill. Couple days of fever, but does pretty well.

Mimi goes up North on long awaited trip with Susanna who flew in for the occasion Friday night. Starts with God-awful diarrhea on Saturday and high fever. Up North sister bonding vacation is spent watching lifetime movies in hotel room. Susanna keeps trying to make it fun. Brings wine and cheese into room keeps up funny commentary about stupid TV then gives up and realizes the trip is just going to suck. The one attempt at sight seeing before the plague sets in is foiled by 45 mile an hour winds kicking sand from the dunes and Susanna, a contact wearer can't handle it. Susanna leaves Northwest Michigan without ever seeing lake Michigan.

Lizzie starts Sunday night with fever. Monday diarrhea and vomiting kick in (lots in the middle of the night) Threatened hospitalization on Tuesday, but hangs tough so wait and see.

Good times!
