Word of warning for parents of RSS kids

[Guest guest]

Hi

I am not sure how to put this, but when I went to one of my many MD

appts, I was talking to my MD about my son who has had a cold. He

said that my son (non RSS) is healthy, he has been working in

the Ped's ward as well and that the ward is full of younger kids with

RSV....I am not sure what the actual initals stand for except it is a

Respiratory Virus that attacks kids that are either under a certain

age or have immune systems that are compromised. Watch your kids. I

know I sound panicky but I know that when I was a kid, yes I am RSS

over 40....I got real sick, and several MD's now think it was a RSV

attack. I also know that many of the kids in this group do have

problems fighting bugs...
