Erik Cantrell Has a Problem …

Along with the six other family members in his Father's household, he also has a case of the Stomach Flu. Sadly, while the others manage to make their way to at least one of the six bathrooms in the home, Erik keeps upchucking in various locations. :open_mouth: Thankfully, there is no residue that remains, but still. Erik, get a grip! This latest accident occurred in the laundry room where they apparently had a fire. He was upstairs at the time, but his youngest brother, still a Child Sim, seemed a tad toasty looking to me when he made his way out of the front door. I found Joseph, Sr., Aaron and Erik in the laundry room looking at the blackened, charred dryer, as if assessing the damage. We think we know what happened. While Joseph was busy cleaning the floor, Erik decided to upchuck. Again. :open_mouth: I'd laugh, but I feel so bad for my little pixilated buddy.
  • Poor Erik! I hope he feels better soon! With reading your posts and seeing some of the pics I feel like I know him, lol. :)
  • Turns out that both Joey, Jr. and Brianna consider themselves Firefighting Heroes. I missed all of this action, trying to keep an eye on Erik. :open_mouth: The insurance company paid the family for the loss of their dryer, so they could rewash the load of clothing. Erik made certain to clean the lint tray, too.
  • Only in the Sims. The dryer burns, but the clothing is still there.

    You know this is only the start- when my Sims get one illness, they usually get another one. The game seems to forget the illness thing, and then poof!, for no reason at all, they're striped and itchy and nauseous in succession.

    Me too! Whenever I see that @GalacticGal has posted a new thread I think; "Oh, I wonder what Erik is up to now?". I like it. :smile:

    I hope Erik feels better soon!

    Yeah, Brianna now is running a fever. Had to send her to the clinic for an examination and medication. While she was there they gave her a Flu Shot, so maybe she won't fall pray to whatever is around the corner. LOL Yikes. While it's fun on the one, hand, all of the family also seems to have allergies. The Dad is allergic to some tree or plant from Del So Valley. That's where they live! :open_mouth:

    @maggiemae8135 and @GirlFromimpanema, respectively. Thank you so much. I enjoy bringing the antics of my most favorite family of all time in this game to all of you. So nice to learn it's enjoyed. You humble me, and make me hope something worth writing about happens in my game.
