Absolutely! Please pm me if there is anything else that I can do!
Art just called Wyatt should be going home tonight. :ThumbsUp.gif :Fp :Clap.gif :Hug.gif God Bless you Guys.
Thats great i hope all works out for you Art...
They are at home and resting.
MRSA... if I'm not mistaken, isn't it very fatal?
Yes if thats what he actually had. It's a very serious staff infection and very hard to fight. I haven't talked to Art since this morning but I'm guessing he wan't MRSA sinc they sent him home already.

Thats what I was thinking, it has like a 90% mortality rate or something like that?
I'm glad he's able to go home though!
get well soon wyatt

In reality it is just an evolved form of staph, thank the makers of anti bacterial soap and people not finishing their course of antibiotics for it's present status. It is nasty, and I am very glad the boy seems to have recovered well.
More about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRSA
Wow!
"In a meta-analysis of 31 studies, Cosgrove et al,[10] concluded that MRSA bacteremia is associated with increased mortality as compared with MSSA bacteremia (odds ratio = 1.93; 95% CI = 1.93±0.39).[11] In addition, Wyllie et al. report a death rate of 34% within 30 days among patients infected with MRSA, a rate similar to the death rate of 27% seen among MSSA-infected patients."
They definetly have someone looking out for them.
Thank you everyone for your prayers and support. Wyatt seems to be doing good and he is starting to look and act like himself. Man, you just feel so helpless when your child is laying there looking at you, but he is a trooper and with all your prayers and support and the good man above, we'll be riding sooner than later. God bless and thank you.
Well thats great to hear! The good lord was watching over him.

I'll second that.
Get better Wyatt.
Get better Wyatt. You've been given a new chance.
MRSA is usually fatal BUT there have been a few survivors......so it's not all fatal.
Thank God for that.
