We relaxed the rest of the day after we returned from Tahoe, and we all went to bed as usual.  After midnight, Logan woke me and told me that he was not feeling too well.  As I walked him back to his bed, he asked me to move his buddy Humphrey off the bed and he sat down.  Shortly after he sat down, he threw up all over our hands and over him.  I helped him change out of his clothes and sent him to the shower while I changed his bedding.  After the first big vomiting, Logan seemed to feel better briefly.  Unfortunately the 2nd and 3rd episode followed; Logan managed to keep those in a wastebasket and did not make a big mess again.  Logan laid down a few times, but only to get up quickly with heaving.  Stuart had thought about staying with Logan, but since I felt that I had been “contaminated”, I volunteered to stay with him instead.  Logan decided to curl up on the carpet next to the wastebasket, and I laid down on the other side of the room.  Basically the entire night, Logan got up every 15-30 minutes to throw up, and there was nothing but clear liquid.  He tried to sip some water and later it would come back out.  Toward the morning, I would doze off and almost missed Logan throwing up.  Finally by 6:30am, Connor woke up and checked to see what we were doing.  I had to stop Connor from coming in, and somehow after that, Logan and I finally felt asleep until 8am.

     After we woke up, I called the Advice Nurse to get a prescription for nausea for Logan. The whole morning Logan stayed in his room; he was still throwing up but less intense compared to overnight.  We gave Logan the first Zofran tablet; it did not dissolve well on the tongue and he threw it up shortly.  After the next episode of vomiting, I tried another tablet on him, and he kept it in for at least 20 minutes.  In the afternoon, Logan finally threw up less, and able to keep some water and Gatorade in.  He was weak and laid down the rest of the day; in the late afternoon Logan finally was more comfortable and fell asleep in the living room.  By bedtime Logan was tired enough to sleep again; by then Logan was warm and had a fever.  He slept through the night with some Tylenol.

    The next day Logan stayed home with Stuart.  He was tired and laid down whenever he could.  He drank water whenever we reminded him, but he barely ate much.  Of course he could not go outside to play with the neighbor kids, and he was fine with it, so Connor went alone.  A few days went by, Logan was finally himself again but his appetite was still low.  However Logan told us that he has enough energy.  On Friday late afternoon, Logan was well enough and wanted to play when the neighbor kid Cole came to ask.  It was cute that Cole gave Logan a hug to cheer for his recovery.
