Calling all those who suffered from PFB Syndrome......how would you have felt if -

[MamaG]

your SIL came to see you in hospital, when your baby was a day old, with a wriggling 8 week old PUPPY hidden in her coat

Yep. that was me. SIL didn't want the puppy to scratch her leather seats in the car

I've heard a lot of stories like that naily. No MRSA then?

Guess what? (I googled!) Website devoted to MRSA in animals

I should never have given up work

On mumsnet far too often now (altho have done all housework and been to gym this morning so have shiny halo)

was it sam

thats not a dog

thats a rat

yuk

most common sites for MRSA to breed -

armpits
noses
throat
groin
open wounds
(all human)

oh and nurses pens

(MRSA is more prevalant in the community as opposed to hospitals. probably the majority of you have SA up your nose, some of you might even have MRSA, but it doenst harm you becuase uou are fit and well. if you developed an illness or had surgery then it would affect you)

and nurse's rings, watches, glasses, which is why juwellary on nurses is banned in some hospitals

I don't use the phrase PMSL lightly, but then I just spat out a bit of my lunch whilst PMSL at poor RIP Sam.

and nailpolish - not forgetting doctor's pens

that is one fugly dog
