The flu vaccine contains inactive (killed) viruses, meaning they cannot cause infection. Side effects common to the vaccine are low-grade fever and aches, which some mistake as symptoms of flu; also, since the flu shot is given during the cold and flu season, there is a good possibility that you are seeing causation where there is only correlation (ie. You may have been infected prior to the vaccine, or you may have contracted a virus such as rhinovirus, which can cause flu-like symptoms). Remember, correlation does not imply causation. I am not saying that everyone should be getting the vaccine - I personally haven't decided for myself yet - but I AM advocating that you fully research the information provided by professionals, rather than relying on hear-say and myths. My PM box is open if anyone has any questions, but I will preface this offer by stating that I am not a physician, but merely someone in the healthcare field with access to the latest information.

I arrived to the building with the most delicious black lingerie I own, it is the most unusual building I have seen here in Ottawa. A good sign! I buzzed in and walked down a long red hall, wondering who designed this building and who would be on the other side of the door. I knocked, and the door opened. There stood the poet in a bathrobe with the biggest smile I have seen in days, which is saying a lot because there have been amazing smiles this week here in Ottawa. He hugged me and gently nuzzled my neck, while slipping my coat off. He took me on a tour of his place, and then we ended up on the couch. The rest of the evening will remain as I always prefer - DNRD. It was two of the most amazing hours and guess what.... HE'S 90!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The point I am trying to make, is that you are never too old to appreciate quality time and to take the time to appreciate the littlest details. If we could all share this mans intense will to live every moment of every day it would make this world a much more enjoyable place for all. If you are sitting having a drink, raise a toast and drink to one day being this much fun... Cat
