Scary times.

I am a complete germaphobe. I never touch my face or mouth, constantly wash my hands and keep distance from sick people. However, last week, I took a friend’s husband to the doctor and while sitting in the waiting room, contracted an airborne virus and have been sick since. Chest congestion, horrible tearing coughing, sinus infection and severe weakness.

Next time, I will wear a mask.

“Next time, I will wear a mask.”

I swear germs smell fear. I’m careful like you, but it seems everytime I shop at my crowded Walmart, I catch a cold.

God bless all the healthcare workers.

Doctor's waiting rooms can be hazardous to your health.
Flying on a commercial airline flight ... ditto.
Wearing a mask is probably a good idea.

Flying is like French kissing everyone on the plane. You are breathing all the exhaling going on.
Turn off the vents and wear a mask. And let those who scoff suck up the bugs.

I have had pneumonia seven times in my past. Colds were a constant problem, but no more.

For the last five years I have taken vitamin D3 daily. I take 4000 IU.

I suggest you try it, for it may make a difference in your health.

Start taking vitamin D3. Take enough. Get a blood test if you want. Your levels should be over 60 and you won’t get sick much, even if exposed. Ok, Ebola might be another story...
