My Mother of 75 went into ER this evening with congestive heart failure. She is resting right now. Thing is she is in another state and I can't get there like I want to.
I have talked to one of my sisters and found that my mother also has not one but the possibility of having two super virus's MRSA(look it up) and another one, can't remember what my sister called it. I looked up MRSA. omg is all I can say. From what I have read so far this is hitting the US harder than HIV, why hasn't it been so widely talked about like AIDs has and HIV? Then on top of that she has another one all from a staff infection that she had. From what I was told they thought that, that was all taken care of, apparently no one told them that these could develop and needed to be tested for when she was infected with the staff infection.
It is hard enough with the heart disease and lung disease's and such that come with age, now we have SUPER bugs that can take life so easily, from anyone. I guess when you find pages online that talk about the way the Governments want to cut the population down by 60% you start believing them with all these new flu's, virus's, infections, then the SUPER BUGS.. how many of these have been actually made by us for warfare, this is now spreading throughout the world regardless of who you are?

I'm sorry to hear about your mother. A huge reason MRSA is spreading so quickly is that people aren't washing their hands as they should, people aren't taking proper precautions, and those on antibiotics aren't taking the full course of medications. These are the top three reasons it continues to spread. People just don't understand how horrible of a disease it really is. It's possible she contracted MRSA in surgery.
It's really a huge deal and spreading outside of the hospital. They are finding more and more cases in high schools, especially in wrestling communities.

I agree with you it is spreading more and more. From what the nurse told my sister is that once you get the other one she was talking about, it never goes away. So with that now if she has surgery they have to take extra precautions before any surgery is performed. Since the ct scan came back found out the left side of her heart is damaged and may not be able to repair. Will know more tomorrow...
Thank you Anora

I am sorry to hear about your mom being so sick like she is. I know it must scare and worry you that you can't be with her at this time and would go to any length just to be with her. I have never heard of the one virus you talk of but to me it sounds scary. This world is full of diseases and i honestly don't think the doctors can keep up any more like they used to. I do hope and pray that your mom is ok and they help her in everyway possible. I will keep you in my prayers hang in there and know everything will be ok good luck to you.

I am more worried about the stuff they are sneaking into our foods under the words preservatives and additives more than them making viruses to spread.. They would only spread a virus they had the cure to so they could make money off it...
Anyhow. I do not believe that is what is going on right now. What is going on is climate changes. We have ice that has been frozen for thousands of years releasing old diseases, uncovering new land, quakes bringing things to the surface, and people traveling more so viruses spread more quickly now... and our treatments make some of them evolve or become resistent.... which is why they are super bugs...
I hear MRSA mentioned alot but you are right I have no idea what it is.. and I hear that alot, I also hear Staph infections mentioned... I think MSRA might be the deadly strain of Staph not sure I'll look it up later...
Anyhow, I just posted to you because I wanted to let you know. I am keeping you, your mother, and your family in my healing prayers and thoughts.
I know its harder to be states away when a loved one is ill, or to not make it to the hospital to see of support them...
but, I am sure your mother deep down knows you care, Many hospitals have a toll free number for out of state people to call to talk to their relatives if they can.. You may want to see if they have that...
Again, Your mom is in my prayers and thoughts. May she recover and heal soon, and may you both meet eachother next time with happiness :) ...

Thank you DNatureofTrain for you prayers.
I have already called the hospital is how I found out how she was doing and they put me through to her room. That will be ongoing until she leaves the hospital.
I agree, with the climate changes comes new and old, that we have no idea what is.
Thats something else to, how now our weather is being worked with to be controlled, like in China, when they are getting ready for some type of government meeting they make it rain so the pollution clears for that day. I found that by looking it up in a search I did one day about controlling weather. Question is when they make these storms can the control where they go or how strong they can become after they use them for the purpose they made them. Storms don't just stay in one place.
Thank you so much for your prayers they are well appreciated.

Oh man it's a good thing hat she's ll better now. it would be very uncomfortable for you if you didn't know she was doing since you live away from each other. In any case, I hope that her health will be okay again. I know that she's more prone to diseases and illnesses especially because she's old already.

I'm sorry to hear about the medical condition of your mom. I'm so saddened of such news you shared with us! If it's true, it's really so disappointing and frustrating because the people we somehow trusted with our welfare are somehow putting our lives in jeopardy by developing such. I just hope it's not a man-made virus. We are praying for your mom.

Sorry to hear about your Mom, and no matter what happens at this time you need to keep Strong. Unfortunately the Doctors and nurses are very inexperienced with Staff infections and such and all you can do is Pray and hope for the Best. Just keep Trusting God for the best to come from this, and even when you do not understand God is in control, and will help you thru this. Here's a (((HUG))) for you as well.

I want to thank you for your hug and thoughts. My mom passed shortly after I wrote this blog. We were with her until the last moment of when she passed from our hands into God's hands. There were 10 children, 9 were present and her baby sister, even in the moment of heart break you can find beauty and awe. My mother was blessed with us being there to help her through. God Bless you, one and all.
