Randall, that sounds like a horrid experience. How did you get that illness? Is it common? I extend my best wishes for your continuing improvement. Robin randall90@juno.com wrote: Hello!
I have been out of the loop for a while (in case anybody was wondering about me).
Anyhow, to update you all:
I fell ill last week with flu-like symptoms and the most incredible pains from head to toe. I had bacterial meningitis. Scared the hell out of everybody (including myself) but am incredibly lucky to have recovered. I just got out of the hospital yesterday, was in ICU for 4 days and in a regular room for 3. Just in my close group I had an aunt and my best friend has an aunt who were both left mentally and physically retarded, and another friend who's cousin died all of bacterial meningitis in the past. I can't even tell you how blessed I feel to have recovered. I am still trying to get my strength back and am taking some time off of school to rest.
Hope all is well with everybody else out there!
Sincerely, Randall
