Thank you!

This is my heartfelt "thank you" to the members of this list.  I've been
following it for several years because, as a student FNP, I realized
pediatrics is a weak area for me, and figured I would learn a lot from
professional discussions among those in pediatric practice.  I didn't
realize until this week how right I was!

I'm finally doing clinicals in my FNP program, and was there this past week
when my preceptor listened in on a teleconference on Synergis.  Thanks to
the regular discussions on here every year along the lines of "I've had my
first 817 cases of RSV this week, how about you?" I was familiar with the
RSV seasonality and the high cost of the prophylaxis.  (Wasn't it around
$1500/dose?)  In this small rural practice, fragile or very sick kids are
sent an hour away to Cheyenne, so preventative care of young preemies
simply hasn't come up.  And because *I* knew a little about it from your
discussions, my preceptor now thinks I know something.  <g>

Thank you thank you thank you!
