Hello!

You got the Norwalk Virus probably.... every 3 years, it comes and causes some trouble.....

You need to keep hydrated... Lot`s of water or better, gatorade ! At least one ounce every hour !
Here`s a recipe for homemade gatorade:

1 cup of orange juice
1 cup of boiled water
1 pinch of salt.


When no more nausea for 6 hours, start eating with something light... crackers, rice, toast. Stay away from dairy products, fat or spicy foods for few days !

Get well soon
