Many of you know we had the Swine Flu at our house a while ago and while I am glad that Deserey and I are no longer sick, it seems like anymore no matter who you talk to someone is sick everywhere you go. People everywhere are suffering from either a cold, the flu, or some other nasty virus.
Ever asked yourself what is the difference between a Cold and the Flu? I was talking to Kaedell about that today. She sounded terrible on the phone, sickness has paid her a visit! We discussed the question did she have the flu or a cold. I decided the question was a valuable one and Kadie had some good points and I decided to give it some further research!
Both the Common Cold and the Flu have become an inseparable pair, like salt and pepper or New Year's and weight loss. Walking down the "cold and flu" aisle of any drugstore, you will find stacks of bright boxes with bold claims of help for those suffering from a cold or the flu. Since the two illnesses share some similar symptoms, and both come during "cold and flu season," the two often run together in people's minds. We have a vague idea that they are different, but if pressed, have a hard time saying exactly how.
Here's a great article to help you have a better idea of what you are dealing with.
