Confessions of a Liberal Puritan

Thanks for the non-hysterical, sensible response to my description of symptoms!

After I wrote that post, I remembered that while eating lunch at the church on Sunday, I shared the table with a doctor and her young teen-aged son and a married couple of about my age, all of whom were discussing how violently sick the husband, and then the wife, had become just a week earlier.

As you say, schools and churches -- and especially churches where you get hugged by lots of school-aged children and eat food that the children have had their hands all over -- are great places to pick up whatever's going around.

So glad you don't have West Nile, yet, and I hope you never do. Who needs one more thing to catch?
