urgh....we've been exposed to RSV.....one of my part-time kiddo's mom called me last night to let me in on it.... :( i think one of the babies might have it, too....she's been wheezing a lot. she's got a family history of asthma, though, so it might just be that, too. it's rough stuff, i tell you. i just worry so much about my little people.... especially the little monkeys i gave birth to! LOL

other than that, not much else about my life to report.... there are many, many worries around me, though, as usual. one of my NICU friend's daughter has RSV, too. we were just discussing how scared of it we were, and whammo...she went into respiratory distress in the middle of Wal-Mart! :( this same friend was just recently diagnosed with MS. even though this is something people can live with, it's defnitely no fun, and she's definitely used to being the caregiver, not the care receiver....her husband has Crohn's disease and has been in and out of the hospital for a while now, too.....so this is EXACTLY what they needed! :( please keep them in your thoughts, as there definitely is a breaking point for people, and i feel like they're nearly there. :(

my other friend jan's platelet counts are going down again. this is the first time that this has happened in their new hometown, so keep her in your thoughts, too. i just hope that ft. wayne's hospitals and doctors are as with it as indy's so that she can get good care.

i'm hoping for a relaxing weekend this week. there is always so much to do....laundry for one....i am beginning to think that living in a nudist colony is a right fine idea. who doesn't like being naked? it's comfortable! and it would be so nice not have to buy, wash, dry, fold, and put away clothes....oh...don't forget the occasional ironing and patching, too!

(ok...off to diet and exercise to lose the thirty pounds that it would take for me to feel comfortable living in a nudist colony!)
