I don't think that I worry near as much as I used to, but tonight I am worried about someone I care for very much; my son Rusty's wife, Lieghann is sick. She has MRSA. I know a little about about MRSA from when I worked for the Ministry of Health. It is an infection that is resistant to almost all known antibiotics. Lieghann has a been a part of my life for many years, before I was jerked out of my world in the Kawarthas I saw her almost every day. She was one of the people that made me feel cared for. I have been fortunate in my life, as I look back on it, that there are as many people as I have who have made me feel cared for. My family has heard probably more times than they care to how Lieghann looked after me when I contacted some kind of virus that gave me diareaah so bad that I soiled every sheet, blanket and towel in my home. Before I was hospitalized the second time and kept on intervienous for two days Lieghann brought the last clean towel in my home into my bedroom and told me lie down while she bathed me. It was such an intimate thing to do. I was so sick and so messy and Lieghann cared for me in a way that I will forget and always be grateful for. There is nothing this woman could ever do or say that would make me stop loving her. And of course she loves my child. When someone loves your loves your child they become very special to you. So tonight Lieghann is on my mind and in my heart. Whatever is good in the Universe please look after this woman tonight.
Tonight I am gratefull for the years that Lieghann has been a part of my life and my family.
