Previously unknown worm-like creatures made of
something like silicone. Supposedly the only match to this material has been made to some nanotechnology substance that is being used to destroy bacteria on meats, and soon to be used on cut fruits. Cooking kills them, but who cooks lunch meat? They are using it on cold cuts. The company making the technology won't say what big company is buying, either.

The term Morgellons is not new, but its use for this disease is new. This disease became known in I think 2004. That's pretty darn new.

And I should stress that I have not seen any worms or movement under my skin so far. I just have small nonhealing wounds (that look the same as a stage in Morgellons), and my MD is being evasive.

Very, very creepy
I was going to say The Surgical Word Book by Claudia Tessier. I use it A LOT!!!! We must be twins separated at birth. LOL!!!!!!

no, but it sounds creepy! nm

To Dog's Day Puppy MT - please read my post below! Creepy flowers.
I didn't want it to get buried in the old thread below, because I'm really worried about you. It must have just been me, but when I read that you found the flowers on your steps, and from your own garden, it just gave me the creeps. Don't know why, but it sure did. She (someone?) been's sneaking around your yard, and though it looks like a good intention, I still find it unnerving. PLEASE be careful! I'm not the paranoid type, but something just doesn't sit right with me about those flowers...

I think the flowers were a nice gesture, no matter where they came from, and not creepy. I think it
is great that she is willing to be friendly and kind to the family. Yes, she should be on her toes but not to the point of total paranoia. You don't know the girl "sneaked" about, she could have just walked over there, picked some flowers, laid them on the front step and walked home, I doubt she was out there at midnight skulking about the yard. Granted she shouldn't have picked her flowers, but it is a GESTURE, and yes, she should know not to since she is 10, but I doubt she was thinking quite straight. She is probably feeling bad about what she did, which is a good thing, it shows she has feelings and is not totally unresmorseful. As for the flowers, maybe it is something she used to do for her own mom and maybe she hadn't minded when she did that, who knows. My kids pick my flowers too, I love the gesture from them. Also, where I used to live I wouldn't have known someone was out front unless they run the bell. So her being out front to me is no big deal, maybe she meant to ring the bell and chickened out, who is to say? --I just think it's overly dramatic to read so much into so little and psychoanalyze this girl and her family to death.

Yes, they bite..and scream like children. CREEPY!!! EEWWW!! LOL

Oh, I found it really creepy when you said you found the flowers not so skillfully arranged on your
steps, and from your own flower bed. That's what I was worried about, having gone thru some psycho kids myself with my pups. Someone's been in your yard and in your garden and at your door without your knowledge. Its just creepy to me, and I'd still be very, very careful. Especially valid sounded the other MTs warning you about potential fake molestation charges. You just NEVER know nowadays, and these people have already turned on you big time once. Luckily (though I don't believe in luck), you had it on film to save yourself and your puppy. You might not be that lucky next time, and the whole thing just sounds very unstable to me right now. I know you feel sorry for the little girl, but probably the only time I have ever made BAD decisions regarding my life is when I felt sorry for someone, particularly kids. My son even has an evil kid in his life, but one who has a million reasons for sympathy, and I was saying how we should "be bigger" than the situation and invite this kid over to play. Thankfully, I regained my sanity long enough to remember - ever time I have done something like that on a personal basis for someone just because I feel sorry for them AFTER horrible behavior, it has always been a disaster... Be kind, but you don't have to risk your family again. Be kind from a distance. Its sorry she went thru this horrible experience, but YOU didn't cause it, and its not really your problem. But it could be your problem if this kid acts out in your life. Know what I mean?
