• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Hi everyone..my mother has been very ill for about 2 years now....my dad has an amputated foot..and is being hospitalized tonight..moms with him and is still in er..waiting for a free room,,he has MRSA ..the really bad strain type..his arm swelled all up..looks like a rattler got him..but what happened is..he and my brother inlaw were installing a new toilet for me and he cut his arm on something ,it swelled up and started to break the skin..which has turned black..like a snake bite..but its been tested and came back as MRSA.......thing is..i feel really bad about this...i also gave my mom MRSA awhile back...you see i have it in an open wound,along with deep in my sinuses,,yes all carriers and indeed most everyone has the virus in the nose...but not deep inside like mine is..an infectious disease dr told me all about that...and i have some mild strain...which in others will morph into the big nasty dragon...

maybe prayers for my folks and kind words to me?...i know im begging..but im miserable right now...Dave
 
Positive vibes headed your way Dave. It's never fun when a family member is ill. Hang in there.
 
thank you every one.

things arent so fluid today..all the tests came back early this morning,its not MRSA as first feared,its Cellulitis ,an infection of the dermis layer.it can be treated pretty well..but i dont know,and wont until tonight,what the game plan is..still dont honestly know when he will be home either..

Daveroo,

I have battled Cellulitis myself. Never easy and can be painful. Make sure he stays off his feet and keeps his legs elevated! Your family continues to be in my thoughts and prayers. most especially your mom. God bless.
 
thanks Rami and everyone..yeah his arm still looks like a black ,and still has many large ...i dont know what they are...but they pop and drain...making a big mess...lol...mom doesnt want him at home having all that "ewww" all over her house...and shes like she was 4 years ago...never would have known she was close to death two weeks ago.
