Swine Flu confirmed in Broward

We'll it's here in Broward County.. Swine Flu or the 2009 N1H1 has been confirmed in a 17-year-old Hallandale Beach senior who traveled to Mexico.

Be safe ......

Health officials are recommending several steps to prevent the spread of the virus:

—If you have flu symptoms, stay home from work or school to avoid spreading the disease. Do not return until two days after your symptoms are gone.

—Wash your hands often and cover your nose and mouth when you cough or sneeze.
—Go to the hospital if you have severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing; but if your symptoms are mild, stay home to avoid spreading the virus to others at the hospital.

—Masks may be recommended for health care workers, family members and others who come in close contact with swine flu patients, but there is no need for the general public to wear masks.

—It is safe to eat properly handled pork. Cook it to at least 160F.

We're Alive



Hi

I know, I know ..... you're not blogging. It's been crazy and juggling everything: work, marriage, kids and everything else is taking up a lot of my time. But, that seems like a lame excuse for not keeping everyone in the loop of what's going on.

Here is the short version .. and in the next few days you can expect to see it in photos.

Kids great ...
Marc wonderful ...
I'm happy

This weekend is the MS Bike Ride from UM in Coral Gables to Key Largo. 75 miles each way. Marc, Peggy, Deborah and friends riding. Larry will be leading the SAGS and I'm going to be his co-pilot and personal photographer. Gene and Racquel will also be SAGing as well.
This year the boys won't be joining us, so it should be different. Kids are with their grandparents being spoiled to death and having a blast.

Love ya ....
