You cannot imagine how happy I was to find this site. I thought I was the only one in the world who was terrified of v*, terrified of seeing other people throw up, hearing about sv, etc. That is, until I realized I've made one of my sons a lunatic, too. He is just as afraid of it all as I am -- maybe even more so. I just cannot stand the feeling of nausea and dry heaves. And when someone in the family has sv, I go into panic mode. I'm so afraid I'll get it, and I thought I was the only person ever who did this -- I eat close to nothing for fear!

OMG, this is such a relief to know I'm not the only one in the world.
