It’s the flu season here my friends and this is the first time in years that I have been KO’d by the bug. Yeah, I had a flu of the very virulent kind that had my body reeling from its onslaught for more than a week now. Times like these could make you stop and ponder for it only mean one thing---- that my days of invincibility are over.
