33. Susie
    Susie entered the hospital for the first time that same year; it was Novemberof 1978. She was diagnosed with what is called alpers disease.  
    http://members.aol.com/shhoughton/susie.htm
    
    Extractions: Between the normal issues revolving around pregnancy there were issues regarding his family in terms of whether or not I belonged with him. Somehow I knew I was going to have a girl. She was due Easter Sunday of that year but she chose to wait another week. When I went into the hospital to have Susie, my four-year-old nephew could not understand why we did not bring Susie home that day. So, Mom brought him with her to the hospital to bring Susie home. She was beautiful and I was scared. She started pre-school in 1981 and quickly fit right in. She had boys fighting over her to see who would lay down next to her at naptime or sit next to her at lunchtime. In fact, I have a picture of Susie lying down next to a little boy. IT IS SO CUTE! A week or so before Thanksgiving of 1993, what should have been a basic pneumonia, turned into something much more terrifying. We took her to the hospital and they proceeded to vent and trach her. Now my next big dilemma. How do I explain to my family that Suzie may be dying? told After Susie passed on I lost my whole identity; who I was, where I was going, and what was my purpose in life? I was at a meeting for

    In humans, the closest analogue is CreutzfeldtJacob disease (CJD), but other humanSEs include Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease, alpers disease and kuru  
    http://www.aph.gov.au/library/pubs/rn/1995-96/96rn45.htm
    
    Extractions: Economics, Commerce and Industrial Relations Group Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), or 'mad cow disease', was first identified in the UK in November 1986. By July 1993, 100,000 cases of the disease had been confirmed and in 1995 alone, almost 20,000 British cows succumbed to the illness. The afflicted animals become anxious, develop an abnormal gait, suffer muscular spasms and cease eating. Upon autopsy, the animal's brain exhibits characteristic spongy changes in the structure of its nervous tissue with extensive nerve cell degeneration. BSE is only one of a number of spongiform encephalopathies (SEs) found in many species, including man. In humans, the closest analogue is Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease (CJD), but other human SEs include Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease, Alpers disease and kuru, this latter disease having afflicted certain tribes in Papua-New Guinea. Sheep can exhibit SE in the form of 'scrapie' while similar illnesses are also found in mink, deer, cats and other animals. All of these conditions are fatal. Most important is the fact that these illnesses involve some infectious agent and are transmissible. CJD, for example, has been transmitted amongst humans through human growth hormone, corneal transplantation and infected surgical instruments. BSE has been transmitted, in the laboratory, to cattle, mice, sheep and goats both orally or through the injection of infected tissue.

    Extractions: http://www.umdf.org/ SEE/HEAR Editor's note: A number of children in Texas who are visually impaired or deafblind have as the cause of their sensory loss, Mitochondrial diseases. In order to understand more about these diseases, I visited the United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation website. I learned that we have a great opportunity in Texas to learn more about these diseases because their 5th International Conference on Mitochondrial Diseases will be held this year in Dallas. I want to thank the UMDF for letting me excerpt portions of the wealth of information they provide on their website to share with our SEE/HEAR readers. I encourage you to visit this website if you have a child with a Mitochondrial disease or if you are a teacher working with one of these children. Mitochondrial diseases result from failures of the mitochondria, specialized compartments present in every cell of the body except red blood cells. Mitochondria are responsible for creating more than 90% of the energy needed by the body to sustain life and support growth. When they fail, less and less energy is generated within the cell. Cell injury and even cell death follow. If this process is repeated throughout the body, whole systems begin to fail, and the life of the person in whom this is happening is severely compromised. The disease primarily affects children, but adult onset is becoming more and more common.
