Hello All:Well, Alyssa is complaining of her "throat being on fire" and since the doctor's office is closed (of course, it's Saturday mid afternoon) my husband took her to Urgent Care for a strep culture. You all know what this means to me - PANIC. If she comes back positive, I will be glad that hers showed signs (unlike bug's) and she will get treated early, but the opposite effect will be mom freaking out and Lysolizing everything. You know, I just don't think I will ever be the same when it comes to strep. It scares the hell out of me:(Thanks for listening.Take care.Patty

Hi :

Thank you for crossing everything LOL:) Quick test was negative, hoping and

praying Monday's culture shows no growth too. I never thought I'd worry about

strep, but I have learned way to much about it and it's a bad bacteria!

Throat is feeling better, but still looks irritated. Hoping it's just post

nasal

drip causing it.

Caitlin is doing great:) She is at a neighbor's house right now. Starting

to think we can stop the Folic Acid here too.

How's Mr. Rob? Are you all on spring break this week? We are and looking

forward to doing, well, nothing LOL, not a darn thing planned so we can 'play'

every day if we wish:)

Take care.

Hi Helen:

Yeppers, we have seen the seriousness of strep:( No word on the culture yet.

Was giving them until about 2:00 to call (which is now) so I'll be checking

and let you know.

Take care.
