Projectiles

Poor little Aimee is unwell again. Crying constantly, no interest in food or drink and barely making any effort to crawl or walk. When she projectile vomited and started acting all drowsy and listless we wondered if it was concussion from a bang to the head? So off we went to the hospital for an emergency check-up. They found nothing wrong other than a sore throat. The paediatrician said she suspected Aimee had a virus infection. This I know to be a euphemism for ‘I don’t have a clue, but if I say virus infection, it will impress the parents.’ So we’re back, at home, with a very upset and crying baby and still, no appetite for food or drink. Cat called her friend and they confirmed that they too had suffered similar – so obviously it is a bug going around. Poor Aimee, I hope it clears up soon, cos it is horrible watching her double up in pain.
