I had a child come to me saying he felt "puny" last week (his mother and I both find he's a little grandpa soul in an 8 year old body) and going to the nurse, she saw the staph infection on his knee. <BR/><BR/>The custodians disinfected the room with some Clorox, and everyone's been just fine. <BR/><BR/>I know what you mean about super hearing, though. We can holler for children to come to supper and no response. We can stand in the same kitchen and discuss moving to another city for job reasons and the kitchen is immediately full of hysterical teens. <BR/><BR/>Go figure. :-0Missyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00571974304103698871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25324039.post-89644075415252600512008-10-14T17:03:00.000-07:002008-10-14T17:03:00.000-07:00Cool kids!

The consensus is that we give it to them, not v.v. The bug can live on them long enough to give it back to us after a course of antibiotics is finished, though - so if you see any recurrences, it's not a bad idea to get your animals nasal swab cultures just to be sure.Maryn McKennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16695106217486522993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25324039.post-30130792425697373432008-10-13T09:42:00.000-07:002008-10-13T09:42:00.000-07:00Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive cocci tha...Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive cocci that forms clusters, which means that on a Gram stained slide, it looks like little clusters of purple grapes.

The Oilybeauhunk had it on his waistline. It had to be lanced, drained and stuffed with cotton. 6 weeks of varying antibiotics and me following him everywhere with the Lysol can and hand sanitizer, later, his scar is still highly visible - but no one else got sick. Not even the cats. ;) Good luck!kailahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12850561966367666264noreply@blogger.com
