Episode Details

A stomach bug has taken down the household, leaving one well adult to handle fluids, monitoring, and cleanup. This episode walks through the layperson's supportive care playbook — why oral rehydration solution works, how much and how often to give, when to resume food, and why alcohol sanitizer won't stop norovirus. Then it covers the harder job: watchful monitoring. Dehydration red flags look different in a child than an adult, and the goal is tracking a trajectory, not waiting for one dramatic sign. Finally, the practical question of overnight checks — whether to set an alarm, and how often. Episode #283460 — open it directly at myweirdprompts.com/283460
