David, I hesitate to post this, but since you are doing better I will do so. A word of caution. If this was pneumonia or anything that could develop into it, be very cautious. Pnuemonia is a killer. In a 12 month period, my daughters grandfather (Ex-wife's father)approx age 60, my ex-wife (my poor daughter had a rough year)age 38, and my brother's wife, age 48, all died of pneumonia. They were each in different states, and not in contact with each other but each died slow lingering deaths (6-8 weeks in intensive care units on life support). None of them took it seriously till they were in bad shape. I gained a new respect for this illness when I saw how hit and miss the prospects for recovery can be. The nurses at the hospitals all told me that the public has no idea of how many people die each year from it. So please be careful, and make sure you take every precaution. I don't believe anyone here wants to see you become another victim. Hank Smith
