This little ditty is about a girl who is random, who likes to sew, who is still working on finishing school. I'm married and I like it, Im chubby and I'm not crazy about that. Most of the time I am sarcastic and a little more like my mom than I care to admit.

Booo Hiss
My mother in law has been in the hospital for a few weeks, following a barrage of complications from surgery. My Husband and I have been visiting her, like the rest of the fam. At this time, a patient she shares a room with has been infected with MSRA staph, which means we can't visit her. This form of staph is resistant to pretty much everything, so it's up to the human body to fight it off, with antibiotics usually assisting the body in fending off other bugs which may be attacking at the same time. As it is, my MIL is only able to use 3 types of antibiotics, as she is allergic to all, but can use these with a benadryl drip at the same time. We basically have to just hope that the infection will remain only with the other patient in the room. My family was in town this weekend to visit, and so DH and I haven't had the chance to see her, and now will not be able to until this all blows over. My school week is basically a gong show, and planning for R's wedding is also taking up time... How does Human Ecology relate to this? I guess it's my holistic approach to life. I am feeling stressed but calm. Take things one at a time, and do what I can. I cant change some of this, but I can change how I accept and perceive all these challenges.

Oh, I'm so sorry! Your poor MIL, not only having to wait and see and HOPE she doesn't contract MRSA but also to now be isolated from her family at a time when family presence means so much. That MRSA is nasty stuff. I hope she's okay.
