I'm so upset and worried and feel selfish for it.
A week and a half ago my youngest got a bug that was awful and both ends, then my middle child obviously picked it up and of course my oldest after that. Tonight my middle child that had seemingly recovered and has been back at school has just woken up having had a grim accident, I sorted all that out and then ten minutes later she was sick as well.
She says she feels ok Confused
My oldest was going back to school tomorrow and I thought we'd made it to the end of the week at last.
With all this going on I'm stressing because I have two jobs, both in an educational setting and both new and so far this week I've managed to only let each place down once. There's no way I can get anyone to help tomorrow for obvious reasons and I'm so worried I'm going to lose either of the jobs I feel terrible. I've been a nervous wreck all week juggling things (other parent not involved at all)
And now I feel so selfish for worrying about that when they clearly are not well

I think rather than sending people back to school, you need to take the pressure off everyone.
Contact schools and both employers, and tell them your family has a D&V bug and you won't be in tomorrow. You and your family need rest and time to settle.
The world will still revolve if you miss a day.

ThanksFlowers I will definitely be keeping everyone here tomorrow I just hate calling off of work, it makes me worry I'll lose my job/ jobs.
It's so weird, my daughter was back to normal for two days and now this bless her
