I'm very sorry to hear your daughter is ill Sarah TBH I don't think I would take a sick child out on a cold day like today. If there is no-one able to babysit for you, I would keep your son home from nursery ....... it won't hurt if he misses it for a day or two.

I hope your daughter improves very soon, there is an awful lot of this virus going around ........take care

I think it's one of these that can come back again and again if you're not very careful. So, handwashing with a nice sinkful of hot soapy water, dry with a clean towel, after every sick/diarrhoea episode and lots of times a day in between, disinfectant on loo handles/door handles/other places you touch all the time, lots of changes of clothes and bedclothes etc etc.
Sorry - not great news
Hope it won't be long before you're back to normal
(Oh, I wouldn't go out or send a child out from the house either. Get rid of the bug first)
