Vomiting certainly is not the conversation of choice, but I must ask that you endure with me for a moment. I decided to call Muddear's supervising nurse to talk to her about the self-induced vomiting. (Thanks GloriousHats for the recommendation!) Unfortunately or not so unfortunately, I did not have the nurse's phone number with me at work, thus requiring a phone call to Sharon.
After briefly discussing the situation with Sharon, I learned that she too has discovered Muddear participating in self-induced vomiting. Sharon stated that it does not happen often, but she has definitely witnessed this behavior.
Why don't people tell you these things when they occur? Okay, I refuse to rant and rave, Sharon is a wonderful aide. Now back to my story...
After advising Sharon to notify me anytime Muddear attempts self-induced vomiting, I called the nurse. Having been forced to leave a voicemail message, I am patiently awaiting a return phone call. In the meantime, I am off to visit

As always, I'll keep you posted.
