Stop Bugging Me!

Remember in my last post I wrote about how sick I've been. Well, here it is 10 days later and I still am sick. Constant diarrhea and vomiting.
The emergency room took a stool sample and the District Health Department contacted me yesterday... it seems that I have lovely infection of parasites.

How did I get these parasites??? Well, at some time they say I must have eaten something covered with feces. OH MY GOD! That's enough to make me sick on its own!

To make matters worse, the strain of parasites I have are resistant to Chlorine and Bleach. That means anything I have soiled needs to be thrown away... it can't be washed. By washing all I am doing is spreading the parasites around.
By the way, that's a lovely picture of the parasites I have... charming isn't it?
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm meeting with the Health Department on Monday to come up with a treatment plan. Zac and Bryant are also going to need to be included. Diarrhea for Bryant has already started. That means I've probably infected him... and I'm sure Zac's about to follow suit.

On the plus side, I've lost 16 pounds in 10 days! But, please keep me in your prayer... I need them at this point.
