I don't think it felt like food poisoning or the other horrible stomach thing I've gotten in recent times. It just felt like a virus- especially with the all-over body aches, and high fever. Kids haven't had a fever, so who knows.

Christopher IS a nice guy. My ex. would just say I was faking or whatever... I dunno. I think what I needed was, in part, to be helped to relax and not to worry, and to know what to do- even if it was just "Go to sleep" over and over nicely, you know? Because in my mind, I was saying to myself "I can't sleep. I feel horrible. I don't want to do the ER again. What about my first day of the job tomorrow...." etc.
