The family has been covered in germs for the past week-and-a-half. The virus or virii (if there is such a word) masquerades as a simple cold for two days. It then proceeds to give you a slight fever, achy muscles and bones for another day. By this time, you may be forgiven for thinking the cold bug is actual a simple case of the flu. Next, this slow moving, pugilistic little bug, punches you in the stomach resulting in nausea and some purging through your oral and nasal cavities. And, as if this wasn't enough, the bug then begins to kick your ass! All the way to the toilet...where you once again purge yourself through your kicked-in part.
The bug moves slowly and case histories in our home, and from anecdotal evidence, show this case of the stomach flu is mild but long lasting -- about a week to a week and a half.
