Flying with the flu

I am not sure how it happened, but the flu got me. It got me good. I was unable to function normally. I did not run, I did not walk, I did not eat, and I could barely breathe. It was humbling. Humbling because I needed help and there was no way I could hide it or do things myself. And I was very grateful for the assistance. 

 I honestly thought I was coming down with a cold. I was going to go to the store and grab some pre-cold stuff and treat myself. Yeah, as if I knew exactly what I was doing. Not that I won't ever do that again, but it was a lesson well learned. I do not have a medical degree and should defer all diagnoses to those who do. If I had listened to myself I would probably still be sick and not able to run for many more days to come.

The flu is very unpredictable when it begins and in how it takes off.
