Please Pray 4 My Baby Sister...

GavinsMommy wrote: My 8 year old sister Meredith has been hospitalized with a fairly bad case of cellulitis, a skin and tissue infection caused by overgrowth of bacteria. It is affecting her salivary glands and the doctors are almost positive that it is a result of her sucking her fingers. They are treating her and she will be in the hospital for at least 2 or 3 more days so they can monitor her to see if it spreads.

Makes me so mad because if my parents had made a bigger effort to keep her from sucking her fingers, which I always tried to do but they intervened...then she probably would not be sick.

Anyway thanks in advance for P&PT

Lauren
