Stomach Bug

Lucas is sick. He woke up screaming in pain, and writhed around in bed for about twenty minutes before it passed. (The doctor reassured us that it's exactly the description of the flu that's going around kids right now.)

L: I took off my shirt, but it still followed me.
J: Yeah, sorry honey, I wish it were that easy to get rid of.
L: We should have a button on our tummy that you can push to make it go away, the hurting.
J: Wow, that would be great!
L: But we don't have those. Elephants do.

J: I think you have a stomach bug.
L: Yeah, it's a bug with a big horn and a hammer, and he hits my stomach HARD! He's very pointy, even pointier than a stick. I don't like that bug.

Get well soon Lucas.
And that's a very excellent description of the stomach flu.
