[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - I have 3 young kids (8 years old and younger) and DH works SUPER long hours. I know he could probably take off if I was like in the hospital sick but I worry about what would happen if I am just a stomach virus sick. [/quote] Lower your expectations for the day(s). A stomach virus can knock you out for a day or two. Let the kids watch TV or play on an iPad. Let them eat cereal for every meal. Ask a friend to take them to school or wherever they go. For your 8-year old it's not a bad time to learn how to do everything themselves (with you in the house).[/quote]
