I think that c diff is contagious, but an infection in the bloodstream isn't. Pneumonia is but my pneumonia should be pretty much gone by now after the high dose of antibiotics that they were giving me.

I even got the pneumonia shot, but I still got it somehow. They are thinking that I got the bloodstream infection and when I was puking I aspirated some of the puke into my lungs and that's what caused my pneumonia.

I don't understand anything about the human body because the bacteria that I have lives in everybody's body in your mouth but if it gets in your bloodstream then you get sepsis.

My mom got sepsis after a dentist visit, so that makes a lot of sense.

Yeah I don't go to the dentist anymore because I had wisdom teeth pulled and it turned into a blood clot in my cheek that the ER cut out with a scalpel.

I take really good care of my teeth so I can avoid them. Some dentists just are careless I guess

My father sent me this... I'm obsessed with these pink flower trees that they have on their street and I always get so happy when they start blooming. They're blooming now life is coming back to Virginia View attachment 2019557

I live in Texas and my Tulip trees are about to bloom. They are glorious for about 2 days.

I planted buckeyes last year. Can't wait to see them bloom. I don't have any flowering trees around here.

I bet they make a mess too when all the petals fall

We have a couple and my favorite are mimosa trees! We have so many of them at our house.

It appears that you have something other than what I know as a Tulip Tree. The ones I remember have an entirely different blossom which actually resembles a daffodil blossom.

You better know it. But, I love them anyway.

I would love to plant a mimosa tree in the back yard. Haven't thought of those in years. We had one growing up, made a mess, but it was beautiful.

May be, but that is what we always called them. If you know another name, I am game.
