Car sick
On Oct. 17, 2003, my husband, two daughters and I headed to Disney World. That morning, Courtney, then age 7, was so excited that she couldn’t eat. Thirty minutes after we left, we had to pull over for her to throw up. She was sick all day. We stopped to eat lunch, and I made her eat a few bites. Bad idea. Thirty minutes later she was throwing up all over our SUV. The worst part was that we had to pull over onto a median in the middle of a freeway. I tried to clean her up as best I could. A trooper pulled up behind us and quickly jumped back into his car after I explained what was wrong. On the return trip, we spent three nights at Tybee Island, Ga. My daughter Jessica, then age 12, threw up in the car. Luckily, she had a plastic bag. It was about 9 p.m., and we were lost. I had one nauseated kid and the younger one was beginning to cry uncontrollably. It was a rough vacation, but we had a wonderful time outside of the vehicle! Connie Beaver |
