I want to wish you a Happy New Year

I haven't been on for a few days, I have been really sick, and I still am. I have the flu, the doctor said I had it full blown! I have been running a temp of 103 and my head feels like it is going to explode. My body aches and my throat is sore, and of course the terrible caugh that goes along with it. I am really weak and can't sit up long at a time. The doctor said 5-7 days of this, and I am highly contageous! I cancelled my fill that was scheduled for yesterday. The doctor also said since I had the first origianal round of flu shots, he had to report that the strain broke through the shot. Anyway, I just wanted you to all know that I just haven't been able to reply to your posts, and I also wanted to wish you all a very "Happy New Year".

Yikes. Sorry to hear you're not feeling well, Betty! What a way to start the New Year:(. Get well soon! Happy New Year to you also!

I was wondering where you had gone! Hope you feel better real soon. You can't really have a happy new year with the flu, so I hope the rest of the year is great to make up for it. :(

Hey Betty, I noticed you havent been around. Thought maybe you were out-of-town.

Here's a (((hug))) and a hot cup of chicken noodle Soup to ail those aches.

We miss you - hope you are well soon.

Love you!

Oh, Betty, I'm so sorry. The flu is awful. But I wish you and everyone here good health, love, happiness, and prosperity in the New Year.

Aw, Betty!!! I'm so sorry you got the flu! How miserable!!! I hope you get to feeling better very soon.

Thanks y'all, I am beginning to believe I will live! lol It has been tough, this sure isn't any fun, but at least I do feel a little better today.

Betty, so sorry that you're feeling so bad. Please take care of yourself. We miss you when you're not here! Sending you big (((hugs))).

(((((((((((((Betty)))))))))))) GET WELL SOON!!!!

Betty, this may be a ludicrous question, but what were your first symptoms of the flu?

Its been YEARS since Ive had it.

Betty, I would have sent you a get well, but I feel like a real dummy, I've never been to the "lounge" before. I especially like the joke thread.

Glad you're better.
