Day 5
The greatest risk of having offspring is their propensity to be carriers of viruses more powerful than what the secret goverment labs can dream up. I have spent the day coughing up pieces of my lungs and I don't smoke either. It started a week ago with my daughter visiting. She had a "minor cold". Fast forward to last Sunday night and the sniffles arrived. Monday I move to Albert Lea with all my belongings aka like the Beverely Hillbillies. The cold grows worse, stronger. Tuesday I awake with the vise firmly clamped on my head. Wednesday was a blur of Kleenex and cold medicine. Thursday the storm lifted in a brief fleeting moment....and then hell broke loose. I awoke around 2am early Friday morning with an elephant sitting on my chest. I guess it's not that bad but ever since I read the Stand by Stephen King I get nervous/ paranoid when I get sick. Anyone else had the crud this season already?
