I know that you two have to be concerned about your husbands. I hope that you're able to avoid getting the flu.
Yes Betsi, I just hate for Gary to have to go to a doctor's office - but he's in one almost every week or every other week!

Diana, the health care workers tried to reassure my daughter that her 13 year old would be fine, and so would the little one. Yes, there are deaths and the like - but deaths and serious cases also occur with the seasonal flu, we just don't hear about them like we do the swine flu. Of course, anything could happen, and it is a worry with Dae Lynn pregnant and Karlie with asthma - but most likely if they get it, they will be fine.

I looked at the CDC website and it says that high risk people are those that have heart, lung, kidney disease and/or diabetes. Gary has ALL OF THOSE!!! In reality though, the seasonal flu would hit him just as hard - although he has had his seasonal flu shot, so hopefully he will avoid it. I've cautioned him to call me immediately if he has any symptoms: headache, fever, body aches, chills, sore throat, dry cough.

EVERYONE - load up on hand sanitizer and USE it!!!
