Flu season is upon us and sounds scary. It's making me a bit concerned about that cruise in October. That's a lot of people in one place, and we're going to Mexico. The flu shots aren't available yet, are they?
OOOH HONEY THERE IS A BLOG WITH SOME GREAT PREVENTION INFO. IM JUST SO GLAD SOMEONE ELSE SHARES MY FEAR THIS YEAR. SWINE FLU IS NOT JOKE.REG FLU SEASON IS BAD ENOUGH!!!
The regular flu shot should be available soon; the swine flu shot is supposed to have limited availability starting in October. Check cdc.gov for the guidelines of who should get each shot. I wouldn't panic yet...the possibility exists that swine flu could be nasty, but that's not a guarantee. Hugs, Beth
The swine flu almost destroyed the Mexican tourist industry and FOR NO REASON! There was not one validated case of the swine flu on all of the Yucatan Peninsula, and yet- cruise ships did not dock in Cozumel for months. Do not be part of the fear. You have more chance of getting H1N1 at your local grocery than you do in Mexico. Besides- if you were born before 1967, the odds of you getting it are low.
Ms. Moon, I am more concerned about getting it around here or on the cruise ship than in Mexico. I thought about that after I posted that and almost went back and deleted that part. It's a roll of the dice about getting any kind of flu.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I feel my fate in what I cannot fear. I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know? I hear my being dance from ear to ear. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you? God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there, And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how? The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair; I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do To you and me; so take the lively air, And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know. What falls away is always. And is near. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I learn by going where I have to go.

Thanks for talking me down. I'd better be sure I keep my diabetes in control. I do know how the media can blow things out of proportion. Thanks again.
