Nice. :) I had a 5 year vomit this morning all over my floor. She had hard boiled eggs for breakfast. Looked like egg salad.

I like that term....I've ninja'd my way clear for many years now. But I learned the hard way that a kindergartner can flash vomit enough volume to cover my entire desk and me sitting in the splash zone.

Awesome.

Just kidding.

I've been telling teachers that 9 times out of 10, a kid who comes to me with nausea doesn't actually vomit. Most vomit happens unexpectedly (I work in a prek - grade 3 school). But I did have a child walk in with a note that said "Stomachache" one time. I had no sooner looked at it when the child vomited on my shoes.

It is really amazing how far and how fast an old lady can side jump when she sees a little face start to blanch :)

It is also amazing how far that stuff can splatter on a linoleum floor!

[100kids, BSN, RN]

ugh! You poor thing!!!

[abc123RN]

UGG! yuck, I would have joined them vomiting. I can see it, clean it up all day but when it goes all over me, yep I'm right there puking with them!

Hope today is a better day for you!
