Not fun.

Clodfobble · 03-14-2012, 02:25 PM

Sorry, man. Is it at least afflicting only potty-trained members of the household? Do you know what caused it?

Diarrhea, (clap, clap)
Diarrhea, (clap, clap)
Some think it's funny,
But it's really dark and runny,
Diarrhea (clap, clap)!

Gonorrhea, (clap, clap)

But it's not ale and honey,
Gonorrhea (clap, clap) !

Diarrhea (clap, clap)!

10 Things you should know about Rehydrating a child.

Wash your hands with soap and water before preparing solution.
Prepare a solution, in a clean pot, by mixing

- Six (6) level teaspoons of sugar and Half (1/2) level teaspoon of Salt
or
- 1 packet of Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) 20.5 grams

mix with
- One litre of clean drinking or boiled water (after cooled)

Stir the mixture till all the contents dissolve.
Wash your hands and the baby's hands with soap and water before feeding solution.
Give the sick child as much of the solution as it needs, in small amounts frequently.
Give child alternately other fluids - such as breast milk and juices.
Continue to give solids if child is four months or older.
If the child still needs ORS after 24 hours, make a fresh solution.
ORS does not stop diarrhoea. It prevents the body from drying up. The diarrhoea will stop by itself.
If child vomits, wait ten minutes and give it ORS again. Usually vomiting will stop.
If diarrhoea increases and /or vomiting persists, take child over to a health clinic.

I'll be fine. I think it is a mild case of cholera. I'm sure I'll be up and at 'em in a day or two.

Or maybe I finally tipped the balance and have Celiac. Or Ebola Zaire.

Clodfobble · 03-14-2012, 08:50 PM

Or dysentery! Don't forget dysentery!
