I saw that story about that girl:it was the strangest medical story I have heard about in a long time. When she runs or walks backwards, she talks and moves normally normally. If she tries to walk, she is practically crippled and cannot speak.

We normally do not do any flu shots but it's scary. I think if you got the flu, you have build the antibodies and have some immunity. I read somewhere that if you get sick you have the antibodies for about 20 yrs. If you get the shot it only last for about 2 yrs. The other thing about the shot is that they are made with metals (the adjunctives), and I don't think that can be good for you. If the shot was a one time deal, it would be better. Did you guys hear about the football cheerleader who after receiving the flu shot, she developed irreversible shaky movements. I it a difficult decision. The government thinks we should. We were almost forced to get the shot, if you wanted to continue to work. Long enough, good night.

I'm due to return to work (as a school OT) in January, but am seriously considering trying to extend my leave so that I don't have to send my kids to daycare (I'm especially worried about a 4 month old being exposed to swine flu). My 2 year old just had the flu, and I was so worried it made me realize that I would feel better having him get the swine flu vaccine than have him catch the actual virus. He just received the typical seasonal flu vaccine this week, and my husband and I will get it too. We also plan to get the swine flu vaccine, so that none of us risk the chance of getting swine flu and passing it on to my newborn. It's a difficult decision to make because you hear that it is only as bad as the seasonal flu, but but now we have a state of emergency declared...and in the end I will feel safer having us all vaccinated (except my newborn of course)... jamie --- On Sun, 10/25/09, Pat Ellison <pat0...@earthlink.net> wrote: From: Pat Ellison <pat0...@earthlink.net> Subject: Re: [OTlist] Flu shot To: OTlist@OTnow.com Date: Sunday, October 25, 2009, 9:25 AM I already got the seasonal flu shot, as did my husband. We both get it every year. As a severe asthmatic, I plan to also get the H1N1 vaccine as soon as it is available. Pat At 09:54 AM 10/25/2009, you wrote: >Hello all.
