Prayers go out to the family.

That's just sad...I have a son that is 17...Prayers to the family and friends...

So sad. Prayers out from the Capital City.

Is MRSA a staph infection or some type of cist ?

Staph infection as I understand it.

Stands for Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus

 

It's a type of staph infection.

 

It is something that folks need to take seriously. One of my son got it and it took a 10 day intra-veinious antibiotic to kill it.

That is so sad and so scary. MRSA is not something to be taken lightly. Poor kid and his poor family. He was at soccer practice on Thursday, got sick on Friday, and died on Tuesday. That seems inconceivable.

This is such a tragedy. For something that can be prevented by the schools with proper cleaning. I think Pikeville shut down several schools a few years back over this very issue. This is very serious.

 

Thoughts and prayers for this family.

Wow that's very sad and extra scary for me. I had that like 6 months ago and was in the hospital for 4 days.

My condolences to Ryan's family, friends, and teammates. What a sad tragedy to see happen. May his family feel much support and love during this time of loss.

Truly awful. Thoughts and prayers to the family. I know his coach and he is devastated as well. So sad.

It took me over a year to finally test negative for it. I was on two different IV's at one time. It's seriously bad stuff.

This is a part of what caused my Mom's death...it's ugly..ugly..ugly:cry::cry::cry:

My prayers are with this child's family and friends. May God welcome him home into his loving arms.
