FEVER BREAKER:

Two rum toddies
Two wool blankets

Drink toddies, sleep under blankets. Sweat out the fever by morning.

I’m not a drinker, but I’ve come to believe people who say that alcohol can help a sickness. If I could develop a taste for it, I’d probably try something of this kind. Strangely enough, I don’t have much fever with this cold/flu. I just can’t get any air, and I’m exhausted from trying to breathe.

I think there is something to that. Perhaps take a hot bath or long hot shower just before. Hot as you can stand.
