A night of changes

Daddy Dave didn’t feel well on Sunday and by bedtime his diarrhea began with a vengeance. Sleep was impossible on the toilet, though many efforts were made. Around 2:00 am Benji began crying loudly. We found he had vomited all over his bed and himself. Daddy bathed the boy while Mommy changed the bed. The smell eventually overwhelmed Daddy, and he lost his dinner too. Shortly after putting Benji back to bed, he heaved again requiring another clothing and bed sheet change. Trey Davey woke hungry about 5:30. His diarrhea had leaked onto the sheets requiring another boy and bed cleaning and changing. Ten minutes after finishing his bottle Trey projectile vomited all over the blue room, Sandy and himself. Between vomiting and diarrhea, we had changed outfits three or four times during the night and were quickly going through clean clothes and bed linens.
