[PAA-Discuss] Capitalism: A Love Story ..... openingatAngelicaThursday night

Thanks so much, Melinda. Cade was much better yesterday and hopefully, he's
on the road to recovery. I hope you feel better soon. My daughter has
bronchitis, too and is treating it with Mucinex DM. It's taking her a long
time to get over it. She still has a dry cough. She won't come into my
house, and I don't want her to until Cade is completely well and I've had a
chance to clean the house from top to bottom. I'm going to see if she'll
drop by before she goes to a friend's house to do her laundry so I can give
her some Sambucus syrup while she's in the driveway. It's supposed to help
with upper respiratory ailments.

We are doing our dead level best to stay well. It seems as though people are
getting sick earlier in the season than they normally do. The doctor's
office was packed the other day when I took Cade in. I was completely
paranoid and wanting a haz mat suit and breathing apparatus!

Take care of yourself and thanks again for writing.

Hugs,

K

Kris,

I'm sorry your son is sick. I have bronchitis right now as well

and am drinking chicken soup and sleeping under a vaporizer.

Regarding the manager requesting paper work, I am not surprised.

When I was in college I had to have regular tests for TB and

the local health department required regular screenings for several other
diseases while I was working as a waitress.

I think that they want to be certain that they keep an eye on people who
work with food and the general public so that they don't have anybody
contaminating the food source who is ill. Swine flu is the latest scary
thing. It's probably just another public health measure.

I hope Cade has a speedy recovery and that you and Ron don't get it or any
of the other flu bugs that are apparently making the rounds.

Thanks for the e-mail, Lee. I appreciate it.

The doctor said Cade probably got bronchitis first and then flu secondarily.
She said his white count is good, but he tested positive for Type A
Influenza. She said she thinks it's probably the H1N1 variety, but she said
she'd have to send the nasal swab to the CDC in Washington , D.C. to have it
tested for sure. She said it'd take two weeks for the results to come back.
I guess they're backed up. I don't know whether or not she is going to send
the nasal swab. Maybe she has to per orders of the U.S. government or the
CDC. The nurse who did Cade's blood work said she's seen a lot of
bronchitis, pneumonia and flu because I asked her what people were coming in
for. It's pretty early in the season for this stuff to start showing up.

Anyhow, he doesn't have pneumonia. His lungs are clear. The doctor said if
he did start having trouble breathing to bring him back in the morning and
if he's not a lot better by Monday to bring him in for a chest x-ray. I hope
the medicines she's put him on will work and he'll be feeling better by
tomorrow or the next day. He's on quarantine until 10-8 and can't go back to
work until then.

He's on Bactrim for the upper respiratory infection and Tamiflu. Supposedly
the Tamiflu shortens the flu by 1 to 2 days and keeps it from replicating
into other cells. She told me to keep him on the Mucinex DM, and she wants
him to take a more powerful Tylenol for fever and body aches. He's on the
Tylenol for arthritis which works for 8 hours instead of 4. 

He just went to bed because he feels like hell. I made him some soup but he
just didn't want it. He did eat some sherbet earlier, though.

The doctor said she didn't think Ron and I would catch this flu because
older adults seem to have some sort of immunity to it, but I'm not taking
any chances. I've been washing my hands like crazy, spraying Lysol all over
the house and drinking the Echinacea tea every day. She said this H1N1 flu
is striking healthy young people in their teens and 20's, but one of Cade's
managers has a 9 year old son who was just diagnosed with it! 

I'm telling you I think this H1N1 flu was engineered in a government
laboratory and Ron does, too. I think somebody set it loose on the world,
and Ron thinks it is the same mutated version of the 1918 flu that killed
his grandmother when she was 35. She died of pneumonia from that flu. He
thinks the "Spanish" flu of 1918 has been weaponized and this so called H1N1
flu is the direct result of that weaponization. The 1918 flu killed over
100,000 in the U.S. alone and worldwide I think 2 to 3 million died. Think
about it, guys. What better way to see how a biological weapon works than to
create it, set it loose on the population and then sit back and watch. Ron
said scientists took tissue samples from dead bodies (people that died from
the 1918 flu) in Alaskan permafrost or somewhere really cold where the
bodies were still intact and tried to reproduce that flu! No one knows
whether or not the deadly 1918 flu was reproduced in a U.S. government lab.
There is only one way to know for sure whether or not the H1N1 flu is the
mutated version of the 1918 "Spanish" flu and that is to test the H1N1 virus
and compare it to the tissue samples of the 1918 variety......if those
tissue samples exist.

Here's another weird thing. One of Cade's managers called him a little while
ago and talked to him and then asked to speak to me. She wanted to know if I
knew FOR SURE if he was infected with the "swine" flu. I told her exactly
what the doctor told me. I asked her why she wanted to know, and she said
she had to fill out some sort of paperwork or something if he was in fact,
infected with the "swine" flu. Now, why do you suppose the manager of Olive
Garden would have to fill out paperwork if somebody was infected with
"swine" flu? Did someone from the CDC instruct the managers of restaurants
and other large venues to do this if their employees became sickened with
H1N1? I find this extremely interesting. I doubt seriously if they have to
fill out any paperwork at all for the "regular" seasonal flu. My suspicions
are definitely raised about this, and I don't think I'm being paranoid. I
wouldn't be a bit surprised if this flu wasn't released deliberately in
countries in order to thin the population. Here in the U.S. young, healthy
people have died from this crap and pregnant women seem to be especially
susceptible to the H1N1 flu. Many have died from it. We think the government
wants to track this H1N1 flu, see where it's spreading, who it's afflicting,
who it's killing etc. The U.S. has been trying to weaponize viruses for a
long time including the Ebola virus and others. Scary stuff, guys.

Anyhow, I hope Cade starts feeling better by tomorrow and starts on the road
to recovery. This particular flu is a real bitch, and it's knocked him off
his trotters. Of course, no flu is fun. I've had my share and wanted to eat
a bullet every time, frankly, rather than continue suffering. 

Thanks again to those people who wrote to me with well wishes for my son.

Kris

Glad you and Ron are taking precautions, Kris. Hope Cade's doc helps him get
well; what you described sounds pretty dibilitating and nasty. Stay well,
Lee L

Thanks, hon, for your well wishes. Cade has a doctor's appointment at 2:30
pm this afternoon. I want her to listen to his lungs. When he starts
coughing, it sounds really terrible, and it's hard for him to catch his
breath. I can't let this turn into pneumonia. 

Keep an eye on Shelby, Robert. She doesn't want this crap whatever it is.
I'm thinking it's flu because of the high fever, body aches, joint pain,
horrible cough and stuffed up nose.

Ron and I are drinking Echinacea tea with honey like mad dogs. It boosts the
immune system. We can't afford to get sick.

Kris - I am glad you reminded me of the flu....shelby too has got
something....a non productive cough and she has been tired and grumpy when I
have talked to her every night this week (phone) so I should not subject her
and others to what she has.  So, I doubt if we will make it.  Hoping that
your son recovers quickly.
