I haven't written a diary in years.

But, I'm just wondering if any parents have ever seen these symptoms on their 4 year old (see paragraph two down)- -

[EDIT-- Thank you all so much for your kindness and thoughtfulness. I apologize if I can't answer every comment. I've gotta step away for a short time, 11:32pm EST]

[EDIT 2-- We're going to give him Benadryl, and I'm going to sign off for now. Can't fully express my gratitude to all of you for your concern and advice. I'll let you know how things work out and let you know what the cause was once the doctors hopefully determine it tomorrow. Thanks again so much, you are all awesome.]

[EDIT 3-- After seeing the pediatrician this morning, he said it is probably "HSP", Henoch-Schonlein Purpura, which has an effect on blood vessels and kidney function. From what I understand, it's treatable, but often recurs, but typically especially if caught early will be fine. We're on our way to Hasbro Childrens' Hospital for testing, etc.

Thanks again to everyone here for your concern and thoughtfulness. -N.B.]

A Bush-Cheney Military Draft in February 2005 should be yet another new line of attack in the coming days and weeks (despite Bush's lying statement last week that no draft will be necessary). There was a thread on this earlier on Wednesday, which got buried quickly.

A definite Bush military draft in 2005 should be stressed, especially on college campuses, since this affects at least all 18 to 26 year olds, plus the parents and families of all 18 to 26 year olds.

A few quick, concise, simple lines posted on Xeroxed sheets around college campuses should read this way, to hopefully get people talking about this:
"BUSH IN 2005,
MILITARY DRAFT,
NO DEFERMENTS,
NO EXCEPTIONS."
