Has it been made clear at this point that this was the first meeting between NL and DE? Just a thought- it's very common for transplanted individuals to be EBV positive. EBV can cause mono. I'm not finding any information that says whether or not it can be transmitted if the virus is latent...
My son had a liver transplant at 14 months, so there has been a lot of talk about this case in all of the various liver forums that I frequent on SM. I just cannot fathom this family's pain right now. I just wanted to throw in my two cents regarding the transplant aspect of the case.
Up until...
My little boy has had numerous surgeries at this hospital. That is a legit inpatient room. The IV in her hand is something that they usually place for a very minor procedure just in case they need to administer something. Kids with complicated health histories almost always get a PICC line...
This is just so crushing. To have something like this happen here is just unfathomable. I sat up all night watching this case before finally passing out on the couch around 4, and saw the horrible news this morning after I dropped my babies off at school. Hailey is the niece of a good friend...
This breaks my heart. It's been so cold and nasty here, our kids should be able to get out and enjoy the sunshine without the worry of some lunatic nabbing them. I have three of my own little darlings to get up with in just a few short hours, but I just keep hoping that we'll hear that he...

This story has a picture of an old newspaper clipping from the time of the kidnapping stating that...
When it comes to this case in Michigan, I think that I side with the hospital. Had they not given in to his demands, they would have been endangering an innocent newborn. That poor baby had nothing to do with his father's views, and it is the hospital's responsibility to ensure that the baby...
Wow. Thank heaven she answered the door- I know I probably would be too scared to have done the same! I've also had people pull up next to me while I was buckling the kids back in their seats and have stood outside the vehicle to talk to them. How lucky they all are that this story turned out...
The second article makes it sound like the guilt finally drove him to confess. I'll be interested to see if that's actually the case, or if he was in fear that LE was making progress on the case. I'm sure that Scott's family is glad to finally be getting some answers...they've already had to...
Wow, that would be scary. Our son has a home nurse come twice per week to draw blood for labs; I was given a sharps container for the needles and told that I could throw the syringes of discarded blood in the regular garbage. That grosses me out, though...we always just put the blood into the...
What a brave little girl! Thank heavens she got out of there and they were able to catch this sicko. Here's hoping that this child and the children of the ex-gf receive the best counseling available. I'm also really glad that the ex is so (VERY rightfully) angry with him...too often we hear...
