Cherry on a mud pie

After a horrendous three weeks, I didn’t think things could possibly get any worse without the loss of a limb or something of that magnitude. I was wrong. I seem to have inexplicably and mysteriously picked up a bout of gastro.

Yesterday morning I woke up with just enough time to throw up my dinner from the night before. Thinking it was an isolated incident, I had saos with vegemite for lunch because it’s gentle on the stomach. Then, suddenly, I threw it all up again at about 6.30pm.

Mum ordered a strict diet of lemonaide, water and air for the next 48 hours: the gold-ole “24 hour bug” diet. Except since my immune system is so compromised we have to extend it to 48. Isn’t this the cherry on a real mud pie of a month!

On the up side- at least we can be pretty sure it's not morning sickness!

Hope you feel better really soon
