Question: How many bananas can a 6th grader eat and then run around the track before he starts puking his guts out?

Answer: 10!!!

I LOVE school nursing!

It's like the milk mile but somehow worse. ?

Bet that won't happen again. Natural consequences are the best lessons.

Nope, every year they come up with something different...last year it was a Taki eating contest with pretty much the same results ?

Taki puke, looked like nuclear waste. I remember the first time I saw that, kid ate 2 big bags and couldnt understand why his stomach hurt!!!

Or the kid who was snorting fun dip and came into my office with a head ache. Interestingly, had a very fruity odor about him. I finally got him to tell me what happened. When I told him I was calling mom he yelled , " For the love of God dont call my Mom!!!"

You just cant make this stuff up. School nursing is an adventure ❤️

What is it with bananas? I had a sixth grader come in after eating too many bananas

S: I ate 5 bananas fast

Me: why?

S: I really like bananas, but now my stomach hurts.

me: ok, i'm sure it does. You'll live. go to class.

I got a look and he went back to class. The teacher called asking my why I sent him to class. I explained the situation and she was fine with him staying in class with a trash can next to his desk.

I love everything about this thread. "For the love of God don't tell my mom!"

Maybe he thought he was low on potassium. ?

I get a lot of takis stomachaches. They usually learn their lesson, though. Haha. When I ask them what they ate, I love seeing the light bulb go on in their reaction as they smile and laugh a little. Almost always get the same look as they say "takis".
