Just a Small update.
« on: July 28, 2004, 10:08:46 pm »
I might as well Let all my good friends here now about What's been going on lately.

I recieved the Medical Examiners report on my Nephew today, actually It became available and I went down to get It.

the Cause of his death was Natural causes due to a Staphyloccus Epidermidis Sepsis. I'm still waiting for the Death Certificate, But I hope It will be in soon.

My wife is also hanging in there, although she hasn't been taking her treatments , as we've been Doing our best to play catch up on Funeral/Crematory Expenses.

The good news is, I should be out of the hole sometime next week.

Once again, I recieved so many cards, PM's and prayers over the last few Months, hell years, I just wanted to thank you all again.

If everything goes well the next few weeks , I was planning on driving up there to see you Tim. I've just got to make sure things are all settled here.

Hell, I had Promised toastyO that I would try to make It up this weekend to visit him, but the Timing is so off. at this point I'll be lucky to Meet Ferrit and Alien.

But I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Damn! What the hell was she doing??? Sleeping all day???

From my own personal experience caring for my own nieces and nephews, it takes a long time for normal diaper rash to go sepsis. Never had it happen to me, but Ive heard of it. Unless its like"Flesh Eating Disease", which is also a Staph infection, Ive never heard of it acting so quickly.

Trust me , I know About the Necro Virus that comes from Step A. Staph however is completly differant.

However, I also wonder about the results. If they are Correct, then Not only Have I lost a Nephew, But I've also lost a  sister, as I'll never speak to her again in any way shape or form.

Besides, she's one of those Young Idiots that Know so Damn much, and Claims I don't know what I'm talking about.

I digress though. It's not that hard to clean a babies Butt at all

Ya got me there. I was thinking Staph when it was actually Strep.

Youre right man. Cleaning a baby's butt isnt hard at all, unless you just dont give a sh*t! Ya know, some people should be allowed to raise goats, let alone children!!!

I truly hate stupidity!!!  >:(

Oh I won't Barrabas, I just needed to calm down over this. It was one of those things that I'd rather rant here then loose my cool around My sister.

The way I llook at it, is that she got her way. People have a reason to feel sorry for her, even though she couldn't or wouldn't take responibility for the Baby, and she got to go Live with her friends, which she was wanting to do for al long long time.

She is just completely Oblivious about her actions, amd the pain It's caused the rest of the family. But of course If she ever needed Help, I'd try an  give It to her. But don't get me wrong things between us will never be the same.

I know we don't really know each other, but I really feel for you in regards to your loss. reading this thread hightens that, I hope you and your sister come to fix the differences.
Either way I wish all your family good wishes.

I don't know much about diaper rash.  I didn't know it could be fatal?  In 24 hours?  I'm ignorant on this but it alarms me, how does it happen?

I don't know, Everyone I've talked to Doesn't understand It either. My wife And I hadn't noticed any problems Predating the last few days of his Life, and My sister never mentioned It.

However the ME's report states in three different places that was the cause of the Staph infection.

I did talk to my sister yesterday, and we just kinda avoided the whold topic. I think that was for the best. Besides , she wanted to talk with her mother, and I'm not going to stop her from seeing anyone else she wants to in the family. That would Be grossly selfish on my part If I where to do so.

My own niece had had a problem with diaper rash. Even though, when she was with me, my mom, or my brother, we kept her bottom very clean, we didnt get to keep her that often. She developed a rash on her face. We tried to tell my sister that it was caused by her diaper rash, but my sister didnt believe us. During a softball game, my oldest niece was playing, my sister and my niece were there, and so was a nurse. In front of my sister, my sister in law, asked the nurse what she thought it was. The nurse said it looked like a staph infection, and after learning about the diaper rash, said that she could just about guarantee that that was what it was.

Did you know that once a staph infection spreads, it can get into your blood? That can weaken your system and allow other types of infections to arise.

I have to say that knowing this now is good for someone who will someday have children. I just wish it was knowledge from another source.
I hope your good Stephen.
