Bad Sign

Maddie has missed a lot of school this year either due to headaches or just plain being sick.

Yesterday she had a headache and said her stomach felt really yucky.  She ended up throwing up last night and this morning said she still had a headache.

I called school to let them know she wouldn't be coming in.

Kerry:  Hi. My daughter will be home sick today.
School:  Oh, that's too bad.  Is this for Madison?
Kerry:  Uhh...yeah.  Wow.  That is not a good sign.
School:  Oh, not a problem.  I just saw the caller ID and recognized the number.

That last sentence did not make me feel better at all.
