Valentine Disaster--the V.D!!




My Valentines week started amazing!! Johan brought home some yummy doughnuts! One was a cute heart shape with sprinkles. (I have a weakness for surgar.)


My story starts:







Friday 4 a.m.......



I wake up to this horrible noise. My stomach drops as I realize my husband of 8 months is throwing up. I heard stories of couples going years before they had to deal with sick husbands. Maybe I was hoping my ears were decieving me. I did the nice thing...look away and pat his back. Johan was so very sick, so I wanted to baby him, so I buy him some Gatorade at 5 in the morning before I head to school around 8:30ish for a test.




Later that Friday.....



I go back home from school after taking my test, to clean up the bathroom. I just couldn't deal with it that morning! I even called my mom to give me a nice pep talk to get me to work cleaning the bathroom. I felt really bad for Johan. He looked really uncomfortable just sitting there on the couch. (I left him with watching 7 years in Tibet. Thought that would get him to fall asleep...Just to let you know it didn't.) I bought him some Gingerale and Ginger root at the store. I had heard that ginger calms the stomach and that I could cut the ginger root and put it in the drink to make it easier to go down or eat. It surprisingly burns your tongue. (I had some...)






Saturday Morning @ 3 a.m.........



I wake up with my own stomach feeling gross. I start to pace and tell Johan that I don't feel good. He was nice enough to want to go to the store to buy sprite. I told him I wanted to go just to get fresh air to maybe get the nausea feeling away. I got ready, with boots sweater and coat. I was all ready to leave and the weird thing was that I walked to the bathroom and quickly stripped off my coat. (I was suprised how quickly I stripped off my coat.) Johan was kind and rubbed my back and comforted me. We both got sick in time for Valentines day.




It was super romantic (<~~~sarcastic)....two sick people trying to baby each other. We both decided to celebrate Valentines this coming Saturday. Hopefully we both don't get sick again.
