That must have been tough Bob. I hope they're in full remission and everything is good.

Hope your boys came through allright, Bob.
That's exactly the kind of situation I was thinking about for
increased risk of getting MRSA infections.

I believe some investigations have shown that misunderstandings about
how to prevent infection among nurses and other healthcare personel
must carry part of the blame for spreading the bugs. Not sure if it
was conducted in Europe or US though...

Both of my boys went thru 3 rounds of chemotherapy for testicular
cancer, 9 and 3 years ago. 3 x (one week in the hospital with 24 hour
IV drip, then 2 weeks off to recover blood counts).  They were pretty
well wiped out by the 3rd round and the hospital got better about
infection protection as time progressed.  Staff did things like
posting a warning outside the hospital room about infections and
looking for better hygene (hand washing) from all who entered the
room.
