Please all of you, do not take the flu or pneumonia lightly. Pneumonia almost took my son when he was 3 yrs old (14 years ago) and it just took my sister-in-law. My 80-yr old aunt should be released from the hospital very soon. My parents and I all have the flu now (we did not get the shot). My wife and son are not sick (they got the shot). I have strain A, which the shot works on, and am on the mend thanks to Tamiflu. Still trying to get the fluid out of my lungs, but pulled a muscle in my gut from coughing fits, so I am working hard not to cough. I appreciate all your kind words for Kelly. She was a very giving person. and the room where the words were said overflowed into an additional room in order to accommodate all the friends and family that attended, A life well lived, even if it was too short (56 years). Nine out of every hundred deaths in the USA right now are from flu of flu-related pneumonia.
