[QUOTE="buddy, post: 530421, member: 12886"] oh my word, that is terrible. So many with stomach symptoms, C diff is so contagious it is a huge chance they all have it. I remember watching something after my niece had it (gets sick so easy, always gets things worse than others) where they said by far and away most cases are contracted in the hospital and then next nursing homes....but it makes sense because they said half the cases start after people are on antibiotics (they said we all have some of that bacteria at times but whether it turns into an infection depends on our having the good bacteria and immune system to fight it) and the intestinal tract is disrupted (good bacteria etc. all goofed up from the treatment). I am sure you already checked on all of that but I just remembered it because we were talking about it when Makenna got so sick. Our family was on heightened awareness. I sure hope they recover sooner than later, it can be so serious for people who can't fight it off. I hope they check your mom for it especially. Sounds just miserable for all of you. This is just not what you needed added to the already stressful situation. I will send lots of prayers and positive energy to you and all of them to heal quickly! [/QUOTE]
