I will too. But you ARE a moron. YOU are a "moron"
anaesthetist once as I was going into surgery that I had lots of allergies and he looked at my chart and said "you probably will never have cancer". Has anyone else ever heard this?

My mother suffered terribly from asthma and hay fever and was subject to bronchitis flareups. She died of cancer but she was 78 when she died.
I believe The Lord will take us when he is ready and not a moment before.

Well, I believe that falls into the category of unfalsifiable theories. When someone dies how do you know if the Lord took them, how about suicides?
Fevers of 102 to 104 are a healthy response to the flu, and the body's primary defense mechanism. One should not suppress that.
I nearly died from Flu in 1968, my fever went to 105 and was stopped from going higher by ice water baths. My recovery began after the fever went so high. Since then I have had very few viral infections.
... I'm confused ...

105 IS too high for an adult (I was 23 at the time). As you say, the high fever is what killed the virus and allowed me to recover, but in my case it almost killed the host. Had I been alone I probably would be dead. Sometimes the fever can go high enough to kill a person, I reached the stage of having strange hallucinations and I felt as if my mind was split in two. On the one side was a crazy person and on the other side was a clearheaded person being amazed by all the hallucinations but aware that they were hallucinations. It is hard to explain if you have never experienced it.
I'd heard that about hte 1918 flu, typically killed the healty.
