Thank you again, Sheldon, and for the further advice offered here. So far my daughter
hasn't held down anything for very long, but we are continuing to get her to sip a
teaspoon of clear liquids every 15 minutes, so she doesn't get dehydrated.

I was able to eat a bowl of chicken stock with a few thin noodles today. My biggest
worry now is keeping everyone else healthy. You're suggestions go along with that, so
you have my gratitude.
