Not many things bother me much, but I do have to vent on this one! Here's what happened:
Little "Suzie" comes to class looking terrible! Puts her head down on the table. At morning circle time, I ask her if she'd like to sit on my lap and she does. Little Suzie falls asleep. Her head is warm so my aide calls the nurse. About 10 minutes later, I wake "Suzie" up and she vomits all over the place. This was such a heart breaking scene! In the meantime, no one can get in touch with her parents or any of her emergency contacts.
As I'm cleaning up this litlle girl, who is obviously so sick and so upset, I ask her a few questions and she tells me she threw up at 6 am also...and yes, mommy said she had to go to school! What is that all about!?!?!?! Don't parents get it????? A sick child belongs at home, where they can rest, maybe see a doctor???*hint* *hint* How about all those germs spreading to the rest of us!...total outbreak!
Now, last week I was supposed to get my flu shot (because I work with children). I have to have some kind of protection because of the constant projectile mucus, cough in my face, and now projectile vomit! My doctor refused because I was sick...upper respiratory infection. So now I've been on antibiotics and have to wait on that flu shot.
I've been spraying down the tables, the pencils, the sink area,,,you name it...it's been cloroxed and/or lysoled!
Wonder if I can somehow hose down (fumigate) the little ones as the walk through the door?!?!?!?!
Rant over!
