Dear all, it is a bad mistake to forget a birthday... I am really sorry about my poor memory and busy life, I simply forgot that 99nicu had its third birth day in May! (I know, this is an unforgiveable mistake. Stop hitting me! I wear glasses! ) Although a bit late, I would like to bring a toast for 99nicu! Three years old! >2200 members >3000 posts >5000 unique visitors to 99nicu.org per month Best wishes from our virtual Headquarter!

Though I have been using Microsoft produced OS (right from DOS 3.3 till XP)...now gradually I am experimenting with linux. I have started with ubuntu....because of the great amount of support available online for this distribution. Anyone else trying linux? By the way Ubuntu 9.04 will be out in 5-6 days

:)Spokojnych oraz radosnych świąt wielkanocnych En riktigt glad pĂĽsk önskar Happy Easter

22 April, test date... I am getting a little bit anxious Trying to collect all I have learned through last seven years and keep myself calm.... repeating myself all the time - do not panic do not panic do not panic If everything goes well by the end of may, after all exams I shall call myself "neonatologist". ( hope so.. .). My friends enjoy first lovely warm weekend this year and I sit by my computer and read read read. What comes to my mind is why don't we create in 99.nicu something like a "virtual party" - a place where we can celebrate our big and small sucsesses- share with other members our graduation, passed exams, gained awards, publications PhD's and so on…

In the midst of all "funny" mails that comes to my mailbox, I think this one is a good one... for me and others struggling with English grammar and style!

This is a not so serious thread... but I just want to share a funny picture from our unit, taken by our Polaroid camera, when I inserted a peripher canula. The short silhuette is one of our (short) nurses. Feel free to post pictures! But consider patient integrity etc.

I am going to Hot Topics this year. Anyone else going there?! Let's have a 99nicu meeting!
