Norwalk virus ruined xmas

I am not sure about where you live, but around here we have the Norwalk virus going around like crazy.  It is basically a stomach virus that won't let you leave the bathroom for 24-48 hours.  My sister's family had it about 2 weeks ago.  Well, on xmas eve we made it about 2 miles from my sister's house and we had to pull off to the side of the road for me to get sick.  From there it was all down hill.  I spent the entire night and next day (Xmas Day) laying on the bathroom floor, literally.

So last night DH gets it.  Now my MIL has it and everyone is blaming me for passing it along from my family.  I feel bad enough that I didn't get to spend xmas with my family or have a wonderful first xmas w/ DH, but now everyone is blaming me b/c now they are sick too.  UGH.  

How about you?  Is it going around where you are at?

Re: Norwalk virus ruined xmas

  • Oh no, that virus sounds awful!  I'm so sorry that you had to deal with it over the holidays!

    I have never heard of the Norwalk virus before, but it really does not sound fun.  I hope that your family gets better soon.

  • Yikes! We had an outbreak at my university one year and the university almost had to close because so many students were infected. The local hospitals just had rooms of Butler students with IVs. I avoided it by only using the bathroom that was in my apartment, which I cleaned with clorox wipes a few times a day. DH and I are really hoping to avoid it on our cruise next week. I hope you feel better soon. It's a terrible virus!

  • The Norwalk virus went around Central IL really bad a few years ago.  At the time I was working for a hospital/medical school and almost ALL of the resident doctors got sick.  It was one of the most horrible stomach virus' that I have ever been around.  Hope you feel better soon!  We have had a light stomach flu going around our area/school lately but nothing too bad.
