"Sam & Ella" were playing lots of nasty games in Jaden's belly! Poor little guy! He missed a whole week of school already and had to be hospitalized to treat the dehydration. I don't usually scare easily, but this really scared me! I felt so helpless watching my son just lay there, writhing in pain, and having to get up to the bathroom every 30 minutes. Thankfully, he has rounded the corner and is starting to eat again!
The doctors have thoughts that he acquired this nasty
Salmonella bug by touching the reptiles at the Aquarium at the City Museum in St. Louis, when we visited just a few days before school started. That is the only connection to the bug; and the delay in symptoms was probably due to not actually eating large amounts, but rather contracting only a few organisms through the brief contact.
I can't wait 'til he is eating us out of the house again, LOL!
