Avatar n tn There is the emotional side,legal side and medical side which you have identified for me.My mother passed away on 11/2/2006 alone in a California nursing home.She already was living in a Chicago nursing home next to her sister and 70 relatives.My mother was a simple person and only had a few wishes one was to die with her family my sisters deprived her of that.While her family waited for her remains for a service and burial my sisters snuck into town without notice and uried her.
Avatar n tn The discharge order was to put my mother into a nursing home and continue her heart medication.Several months later her life was ended with morphine.When the doctors in the hospital found that haldol was used to make her comatose,her heart medications were withdrawn and refused to be continued dont they have an obligation to my mother?Does Hospice have any obligations to the withdrawal of medications?
Avatar f tn After the initial engorgement phase I was able to wear regular sports bras and just tuck them under my boob while nursing... but having the nursing bras was awesome, I liked the convenience and discretion factors.

Avatar f tn I did it because my siblings would not. I divorced my 2nd husband when I put Mother into the nursing home. But my mother loved my 2nd husband, she wanted him to care for her, and 2 was willing to do that. In the nursing home, mother refused to eat, unless 2 fed her. And so he did, 3 meals a day, 7 days a week. Further, he brought what she wanted and liked to eat, and he got to know other patients there, supplying them with fruit, daily.

The woman that owned them got more involved with horse rescue and the baby was not wirjed with much. They were well cared for and in good health. Well, the baby still nurses!! Daughter had them Vet checked when she got them and the Vet said it was unusual but has seen it before. She said the mother will eventually get tired of it.
Avatar f tn Losing a parent is such a hard thing to prepare yourself to face. We just lost my husband's mother this past summer. I've lost both my parents and now my dear mother-in law of 40 yrs. She was such a blessing in my life. She knew where she was going and that was not only comforting to her, but certainly to us as well. She was on a lot of medication toward the end but she was aware of all of us being there, she was on oxygen but only for a few hrs, usually in the evenings.
Avatar f tn I have been taking Valtrex regularly for 2 months and I have been taking 1 gram of Valtrex steadily for 2 weeks, and it is not going away. Valtrex has always worked quickly when I have had outbreaks in the past. The symptoms of this lesion (itchiness or soreness) come and go. What could be causing this? Could it be something other than herpes? Could the Valtrex be harmful to my baby? I go to the doctor again, soon, but want to be armed with all the inform. I can.
450285 tn?1207625485 s a lot of claws and a lot of discomfort. It would make the nursing a lot more comfortable for the mother to take the tips off the claws, but JUUUUST take the tip. Make sure you don't clip too far down and make the kitten bleed. It won't hurt them severely, but it will make them afraid to have their nails clipped, and it could make them nervous about being handled, which will slow down their socialization. I just love kittens!
Avatar f tn I have taken care of 2 babies from the same mother at different times where both babies were born C-section and both born with CP "due to undetermined cause" I thought that if you avoided vaginal contact during birth that there was no risk to infant. My question is this, Is there any way that hsv2 can be systemic? Is there anything you have read to support such an outcome? I worry so much about that thinking about family planning in the near future. One more question....
Avatar m tn The following day, however, they started nursing again and we tried to separate them from the mother as much as we could, but that seemed to annoy her badly and she kept looking for them everywhere. I keep an eye on the incision and stitches and apply an antibiotic ointment and she already received antibiotic and antiinflammatory injections,..thanks God there is no sepsis and I will take her to the vet to remove the stitches in a week or so.
Avatar n tn We have a 4 week old kitten and the mother is now refusing to feed - everytime the kitchen latches on she yowles and moves away. Is it possible to get mistitus and if so what can be done to treat it?
Avatar m tn My mother was recently diagoised with Hep C. They think she has had it since at least 1989, but no one is real sure. She has had her first round of treatment and will be getting her viral load tested again next week. She decided not to tell us until last night becuase she didn't want to worry us. Thankfully her nurse convinced her that we should be told so that we could take precautions. i am not sure she really understood that it could be passed until then. So now I am worried.
Avatar f tn I am 28 years old and almost 2 years ago my mother revealed to me that she was diagnosed with Herpes. She told me that she's not sure how long she's had it, but that she thinks she's had it since the 70's and before her and my dad were married. She told me that she asked her gynecologist about it back then and they didn't know what it was and so I guess it's a little too late now.
233915 tn?1218813127 The past several weeks have been the longest and most painful. I stayed with my mother sharing rounds at the hospital. Through this experience I have developed a great appreciation for the special nurses who cared for him. In the end, we were forced to send him to a hospice - where we stayed beside him around the clock until he drew his last breath. The people who cared for him are indeed the most special people I have ever encountered.
Avatar m tn Hi! I'm not sure I can be of as much help here as some others can, since I'm new to the forum, and come here for advice myself. However, I am currently just over 34 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby, and only recently (within the last month or so) learned of the dangers of neonatal herpes. To say it has had me concerned is an understatement!
Avatar n tn If the mother is nursing, it is most likely it is coming from her. An overgrowth of yeast in the mother can be given to the nursing baby, causing them to be easily affected. Watch the inside of the infant's mouth. if there are white spots or patches in the mouth or on the tongue, then that's another sign. There is a non-medical way to conquer this. Go to a nearby health food store that has "refrigerated" Probiotics. Get a bottle of Bifidus powder for children.
Avatar f tn How good does valtrex work in suppressing HSV 1 I started taking 1000 mg a day?
Avatar f tn So now that i found out that i have hsv-1 do i need to take valtrex everyday for the rest of my life if i dont want to get my partner infected?
Avatar f tn My doctor told me to stop taking Valtrex for a while to let my liver regenerate. While I think Valtrex is an excellent drug for treating HSV 2, I think users should take into consideration that long term use can cause some mild to moderate damage to the liver as my tests have proven. Also, anyone using Valtrex should not drink ANY alcohol while on it because it will exacerbate the problem with your liver. I'm hoping in a few weeks my liver tests go back to normal.
Avatar n tn I have not had any outbreaks at all, I occasionally have burning and itching, but beyond that nothing else. I have been on supressive therapy w/ Valtrex since the end of may. I have had pain on lower right abdomen, under my ribcage it feels, and pain on my right lower back. Is this a symptom of Herpes, or can this be a reaction to the Valtrex?
Avatar m tn I have been on valtrex for the past 4 months (1 a day) if the symptoms I am having have not gone away for a period of 2 years ( symptoms are there for a week then subside for 2 - 3 days then come back ) this has been like clockwork for the past 2 years.
127596 tn?1210922622 Instead I found an empty bottle of Valtrex, prescribed to her. Needless to say, there was no way in hell I was going to use any toothbrush in there. Rather than blowing up about it, I came home and did some research. But I was sad to find that Valtrex is only prescribed for Simplex I, Simplex II and Zosters. So I asked her about it (via instant message - is that bad?). She said she gets cold sores sometimes, and the Valtrex gets rid of them quickly.
Avatar n tn What is the possibility of being immune to Valtrex? Is there a possibility that after taking Valtrex daily that in a couple years it may no longer be effective?
Avatar n tn my partner who i met has been on Valtrex for a couple of years and the pass year we had unprotected sex. I went and got tested and my blood work came back negative. She is ok with the results and angry that she allowed me to convince her and not using condoms. I just can't explained why we did it without condoms only that I love her and we are getting marry.
