***DOES HUGE DANCE OF JOY***


Ashley was given the green light to go home. We are still waiting for the final resutls but her fever has been down for 48 hours and she's eating so they said so long! Her main thing was the mutant strain of Strep as far as we know. She returns to the doctor on Thursday for follow up and resutls.

I would like to thank everyone who expressed their good thoughts and well wishes. I will always belive in the power of good thoughts.

And on that note, to the one who expressed the negative thoughts towards us.......well, isn't it amazing what so many peoples good thougts can do to cancel out one persons negativity. It just goes to show you....once again proving the theory to me that good thoughts will always rule and Ashley is living proff of it.

Thank you to everyone

Actually I was going to post her picture this afternoon when I get off work so that you may see who you've been keeping your kind thoughts for. Maybe I get her to post a bit. She's really quite beautiful if I do say so myself. No.......mom's not a bit biased at all

She's been asleep most of the day and her ear is still acting up, but she is on the mend and that's what counts.

	Tired of ads?

Did they ever reach a verdict on the cause of her illness?

The thing that was in her hand is known as a "Hep-Lock". It's the end of a plastic catheter with a small amount of anti-coagulant known as heparin in a reservoir to keep it rom becoming clogged with clotted blood so that it can be re-used as an IV site if needed.

No, not beyond the Strep G, they keep telling us that by Thursday they will have the results of the Blood Cultures. Dr. Strange does it usually take 4 days to grow a blood culture? The tech had mentioned something to that effect. I guess it just depends on what they are looking for.

Well alright then! You guys are nuts So I thought you would like to see the girl you've been keeping good thoughts for. And yes I believe I can persuade her to post here, she was eating a few minutes ago but maybe I can get her to post.

This would be my 18 year old daughter Ashley Personally I think she's beautiful, but I'm her Mom Oh and yes......do remember about Tia's famous baseball bat!!

perhaps if Dom Pedro troubled himself to read a bit... he would have taken notice of the line "Apolyton Princess".

	Suffering from ads?

And 18, you say? Only a year younger than me...

Only joking.

And Dom - you do realise that when you say "Smacks self in head", it has a bit of a double meaning in this thread?

Yes it can depend upon what's being grown. Fungi can take weeks to months to grow in culture. Bacteria usually are grown for 24 to 48 hours, but after the culture is grown it is then run through batteries of tests to identify the species, and then tested against a battery of antibiotics to determine which will be the most effective.

Ahhhhh yes well then that would explain why it's taking them a few days to find an answer.

Dom ~ the reason Chowlett was laughing at you is..... you said **smacks self in the head** My boyfriend who is also a member on this board is named Selfbiased and most people when they refer to him just call him Self. So you can of course see the irony of your post.

I knew you would like her Ashley does not have a boyfriend, just graduated and wants to be a .......oh I will probably misspell it but a Forensic Toxicologist.

And yes she would like to find a nice guy, but remember she comes with a Mother who has five heads!!


boann ~ It's nice to have you back on the boards. We can use more females here.
