Well, It May Have Finally Happened

For 9 years plus now I have been waiting for the answer to the question - what happens if I catch the flu? I'm not sure it's the flu I've gotten, but I sure am sick. Still hopeful that it could just be a bad cold - and literally fearing that it doesn't get into my chest. If that happens, I could be in bad shape - as it takes me a week to recover from a 24 hr virus. So the flu could easily either cause complications or just take me a month to recover from. I'll keep you updated - (assuming someone's reading this that is). Hoping not to give it to my wife, whose condition is bad enough already - if she gets sick and we're both down - Lord help us, as there's nobody else around.

I know when you are young you think you are 10 feet tall and bullet proof, and as you age you start the realization process of all the things that can go wrong, but literally living in fear - that's a new one for me, and frankly, shows a lack of faith in my Lord to watch over me at all times. Sickness rarely produces great faith, although I can truthfully say that I would not change the past 9 years for anything. What I've learned through this illness has been something I could not have done without it - I am certain. Enough for today.
