I felt bad that I missed Mass Sunday.   I was sick with stomach virus and didn't want to give it to anyone else.

 :barf:I'm glad you stayed home.  What if you gave it to the priest?  It's always charity to consider others above ourselves.  More times than I can count, parents send sick children to school, only to have them infect everyone.  I have permanent (this life) arthritis and chronic fatigue, result of parents sending children with Fifths Disease to school in 2011.  Children soon recover, adults become very ill and  can suffer permanent aftereffects.  The main reason parents don't keep their child at home is because of the selfishness and greed of American employers.
