Hello all,

Am in need of some support. My child he the stomach bug a few days back and caused to miss an important day at work. I have now been experiencing anxiety I am going to get next and miss work and in turn lose my job. It's not been fun dealing with this anxiety.

Thanks.

Joe

Hi Joe,

I'm sorry to hear your child was sick with a stomach bug, I recently just got over one myself so I understand.

Do you take vitamins? They are important to take daily to fight off sickness's. Also try to think positive, tell yourself a positive mantra over and over again, something like. " I won't get sick, I refuse to let the anxiety get the best the of me".

I hope you don't catch it, and hope your child is all better now.

Thankfully he is only was out for about 12 hours which has been mild compared to previous ones. Thank you

I am glad to hear that your son is on the mend!

You will likely be fine...we adults have immunities to many of these chilhood bugs...and I am sure you were careful to wash up well. Gastro viruses are not airborne in the sense that colds and flus are...so you should be fine.;)

Well wishes for your household,

S.C.
