Hi all. Hope the turkey was great!

Got a ? for you all. My sister phoned and asked me to search the internet to see if I could find anything on the "alice in wonderland" virus...thought she was talking about a computer virus!
But..... this is apparently the latest virus to be affecting children. It includes fever, tunnel vision, vomitting. Anyone heard anything about this?

Haven't heard of it, but may be living it!!
Dd has an ear ache and fever and just threw up.... keep us posted and I'll hunt around too.

Try this site, if you like.... http://www.geoid.clara.net/rik/aiws.html
it's about Alice in Wonderland Syndrome but refers to the vision aspect you mentioned.
Also, my Yahoo search came up with a listing at parentsplace.com
but I couldn't find anything at that site dealing with it. It referred to it being related to mono....
Don't know if any of that helped or not....

Thanks for the site littlesista06. I couldn't find anything at Parent's Place either.

Sure sounds like a strange illness. And rare. Hoping that this is not what my nephew has! 8o
