1) YAY
2) *huggle*
3) I won't be able to leave you a coherent, intelligent comment until probably tomorrow, after my brain wakes up. I get the basics, but everything else is eluding me.
4) I LOVE YOU.

Well at least now they're saying shit about it, seriously. :/ Go back to your doctor and shove that shit in his face!

But if the virus can be transmitted, does that mean that Colton can become infected with the same thing?

Yeah, definitely faxing these articles to Turner. Trying to find out where/when/if I can get tested for this thing.

Because of how the virus is transmitted (same as HIV: body fluids), if I have it, then Colton pretty much definitely has it, too. It may not manifest the same in him as it has in me (Hell, it may just lay dormant for his entire life. There's no telling), but that's not our primary worry, anyways. His family is plagued from all sides with prostate cancer... which is the other disease linked directly to XMRV. (It shows up in roughly 40% of prostate cancer samples, and it's also found in more general tumor cells)
So even if I didn't give him CFS, I may have shot his chances of cancer through the fucking roof. :|
