Stomach flu + Thanksgiving feast = BIG mess

Thursday night around 11:30, the following was overheard being broadcast from my brain:

Attention Digestive System, a level 4 emergency has been declared.  All contents of the alimentary canal must be expelled from the body immediately!  Please use the nearest available exit.  You have 15 minutes to comply.  Thank you for cooperation and have nice day.

And so began 36 hours of misery.  All told 3 adults and 3 kids (which bounced back rather quickly - oh to be young again) and 3 bathrooms were out of commission.

Sounds like a Staph intoxication. Been there and done that. Not pretty. Take care of everyone and yourself so you don't get it back!

I'm pretty sure it's a rotavirus. There seems to be an especially virulent strain going around this year - very contagious.
