    Alty
    I missed so much! Teach me to go to work! ;)

    Okay, well Alty is pretty easy actually. My original username was Altenweg, my last name. No one could spell it, and it was way too long, so someone shortened it to Alty. I don't even remember who. Anyway, I too didn't think I'd stick around on this site, so I picked a name I knew I'd remember. A while back I begged to have it changed to Alty. I'm pretty sure I had to give up my first born to have it done, but seeing as he's a 13 year old boy, no one has come to collect him. :)

    Nicknames for my kids. Well, Syd was "Boo" when she was little, because she looked like Boo from Monsters Inc. A friend started calling her that, and still does, but he's the only one that can get away with it now. Sneezy calls her Dimples, but, again, he's the only one that's allowed to call her that. I call her Syd, or Sydney bean.

    When Jared was little I called him Mr Munch, because that kid ate everything he could get his hands on. Schatzie (sweetie in German), and now it's Jare bear (which he hates). Seeing as he's 13 now, and a typical teen, most times he's called brat, but usually not to his face. ;)

    I had a bad night. Have a baby who was shipped to a higher level of care and is on neonatal brain cooling. HOWEVeR!! I can't look it up on my computer. When I Google it I get a list of sites but when I click on them advertising comes up instead of the actual website. I'm doing a virus check now, I've done Malwarebytes, I don't know what else to do.

    Somebody help me before I go into withdrawals! I'm currently operating under safe mode!

    Could you look up "neonatal brain cooling" and provide me a link? I would like to see if I click on it and I get it or it comes up more advertising. Thanks!

    This is a link that should have absolutely no advertising attached to it: Head Cooling Guideline

    It's from Vanderbilt University.

    If you need more or to tweak the search, just let me know. :)

    The little one is in my thoughts.

    It doesn't look good. Please keep this little one in your thoughts. She has a 15 year old mother who is not really capable of taking care of a special needs child. As harsh as it sounds, sometimes the worst outcome is actually the best for everyone involved.

    My thoughts and prayers go out for both baby and mother.

    I understand what you mean. I sometimes wish more young females really understood the dangers. But even then they are in denial.

    Apparently this mother thought that CPR was used with every delivery. While they were doing CPR she was texting her friends. It's very sad indeed and I'm sure I will have nightmares today. I just wish I could reach out to the teens better.

    Hey! That's an idea... I could become certified in teen pregnancy!

    I think you would do great in that specialty. Just remember that slapping them senseless is not a good method of treating them.

    I wish I could I could think of anything to soften the concern and give you better dreams. You know where to find me, if there is anything I can do. Yes, that includes sharing the flirt. ;)

    Cat, as soon as I read what J wrote my first thought was "slap them senseless!" Darnit. Are you sure it's not an option, because it sure would feel good! ;)
