MarcM Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 My wife is big into the holistic approach to preventing/fighting colds and flu. Mya has actually started to feel better already after an onslaught of whatever my wife gave her. We have all been on anti flu drops for the past month. The claim is that you are less likely to get the flu, and if you do, it will not last as long. So far, it seems to be working out that way.
Lea Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 Did you get flu shots or is it H1N1? Last time I got the flu, I was 1 hour away from death according to the emergency room docs. Since that happened I have been getting flu shots every year and haven't had it since. If I get H1N1, I won't be here to post because I will be among the recently deceased.
edna Posted November 8, 2009 Author Report Posted November 8, 2009 Oh, come on, Lea... swine flu is flu. Not worse if you don't have lung trouble. At least that's what my doctors said...
Jenny Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 I agree with edna, but on the news every night, they are making this out to be this horrible thing and scaring people all to death. Also, they're making a big show about only the people at risk should get it, and you need to sign up, yet when we took our daughter to the clinic, they just asked everybody who walked in the door if they were here for an H1N1 shot and gave it no questions asked. No wonder there's still a shortage......
MarcM Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 no shots, just the drops. Mya's fever was hovering at around 101 yesterday. It was down to 99 this morning around 2am. Mariko is now having the same symptoms that Mya had in the same order. Whatever it is, it seems to run it's course quickly.
skybluesky Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 It's times like these I thank my lucky stars I am a socially awkward hermit who eschews human interaction.
Lea Posted November 8, 2009 Report Posted November 8, 2009 if you don't have lung trouble. I do have some lung problems but only because of the last time I got a bad flu I can think of better and easier ways to die then slowing smothering to death
Levis Posted November 9, 2009 Report Posted November 9, 2009 Might I throw in the possibility that, cancer or flu, if you like to think you're going to die you probably are going to die?
c_s_1987 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Posted November 9, 2009 What a historically significant day. I sure don't remember anything from that long ago, but it's certainly a very important anniversary.
Shawna Posted November 9, 2009 Report Posted November 9, 2009 I have a small piece of that wall. It's in a u/v plexibox case with suede lining the bottom.
Farin Posted November 9, 2009 Report Posted November 9, 2009 awesome Here's a short documentary on the happenings... maybe it's not that known that all of this only happened because of a misunderstanding...
Jenny Posted November 13, 2009 Report Posted November 13, 2009 I just realized I have hit over 8000 posts!

Levis Posted November 18, 2009 Report Posted November 18, 2009 TV show about vampires that acts as a metaphor for the treatment given to minority groups. People either love it or think it's silly.

Steel2Velvet Posted November 23, 2009 Report Posted November 23, 2009 My oldest daughter, Paige (I posted photos from her wedding here a couple years back) had my 6th grandchild last night. A 6lb 14oz girl named Alayssia. Paige has been through a lot of self-generated and unattributable problems throughout her life. The latest was a miscarriage of her first pregnancy a little over a year ago. Last night's dramatic event is a real blessing for her and her husband, as well as a confirmation that the past is not one's irrevocable life determination factor. I know theirs will be a great family!
Shawna Posted November 23, 2009 Report Posted November 23, 2009 confirmation that the past is not one's irrevocable life determination factor. Congratulations, Ron, to you and your daughter and her family! What a great way to end the year. I love this quote of yours. I think I'll print it up and keep it close.
Lea Posted November 23, 2009 Report Posted November 23, 2009 Congratulations, Ron How lovely for your family to have a new member
