fly away flu
Posted: 01/13/2013 Filed under: family, health & fitness 1 Comment »My heart goes out to everyone who has suffered or is suffering from the dreaded flu this season.
This past Thanksgiving my husband and I sat outside for an evening bonfire in the backyard. He went inside because he said he wasn’t feeling well. I stayed out in the yard for a few more minutes and shaped the embers into a heart.
Cliché? Yes.
Fun? Very much so.
I took a few photos of the glowing heart and listened to the embers crackle. Moments later I went inside to find my husband in the beginning stages of the flu. It lasted for several days. It was heart breaking to see someone who is normally so vibrant and healthy barely able to move and in so much pain. Needless to say we spent the entire Thanksgiving weekend taking care of each other as we suffered from different varieties of the virus.
Here’s to renewed health & wellness! I hope the flu flies away quickly for anyone who is suffering.

Did you get a flu shot? http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/newsdesk/2013/01/for-gods-sake-go-get-a-flu-shot.html
I’m currently weighing my fear of needles against my intense desire to avoid being sick.
