Yuck

There has been an outbreak of E. coli at our kids' daycare recently. I don't believe that it originated there but one of the children had E. coli and then it spread to at least 5 other kids. So today when my son was at preschool he had blowout diarrhea and his teacher recommended that we get him tested for E. coli. My husband, wonderful man that he is, collected stool samples from both our kids and tomorrow we will go to our pediatrician to check out the poop! I was/am still pretty freaked out about the whole thing and of course googling E. coli has not helped to alleviate my fears. It is scary stuff. Could you pray for my kiddos? And for quick test results? We have basically canceled all plans until further notice (play dates, bible study, church, school, etc.).

Thanks.

I'm SO sorry! I was hoping to see you tomorrow, but I guess that won't be happening. I'll be praying, too. I hope your kids have escaped it.

Love,
