My 2 children got sick on Sunday, February 7th. My two daughters age 11 and 6, both went with their father on a visitation Friday, February 5 in the evening til Saturday, February 6 in the evening. On Saturday evening my ex-husband took both girls to dinner with him, his fiancé, his fiancé’s sister and his fiancé‘s sister’s baby to this location in Springfield, MO. My 2 daughters, the fiancé’s sister and the fiancé’s sister’s baby all ate chicken strips there. Yesterday evening (Sunday February 7), my 6 yr old began vomiting first Around 3:30 in the afternoon, then my 11-year-old started vomiting two hours after my six-year-old had. I had gotten a hold of my ex-husband and his fiancé and ask them what both girls had eaten the evening before when they were out with them. My ex-husband told me they had chicken strips and that the fiancé’s sister who also had them as well as the baby who had them were all vomiting at their house also. I did end up having to take my daughters to the ER because my 6 yr old had vomited 8 times and my 11 yr old had vomited 6 times. Every time I tried to get both my girls to take fluids they would vomit right after. I got in touch with my ex-husband again to make him aware of what was going on, and that is when he told me that his fiancé sister was in the ER and that they were having to rush the baby to the ER as well because both of them could not keep anything down either. Both my daughters seem to be on the mend now but they had vomited a couple more times since the hospital visit and had some watery diarrhea. I got a hold of my ex-husband again this morning Monday, February 8, and everybody in his house except for the baby was able to go home, however the baby was admitted to the hospital for the severity of the symptoms. Sorry to have to complain but my children were harmed and I feel they need to be held accountable for this. I also work in the food industry and I take food safety very seriously. I do appreciate you all taking the time to read this and hopefully it will be resolved when and if you are able to take action. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting
