T'is the seaon to be fluey

I had my flu jab last week, just in time me thinks :)
In my work place, some of my team mates have been showing signs of the dreaded flu bug.

I have got my first of my 3 days off today and I can feel a little tickle at the back of my throat.
I am pumping myself full of vitamins and immune defence pills and taking my flaxseed granules and am hoping this will kick the backside out of the flu bug.
I am not feeling under the weather like I usually would and am hoping that the pills and diet have helped with the immune system.
I also have auto immune diseases, Hypothyroidism (under active thyroid) and Alopecia (hair loss) my head looks like a map of the world and I have lost my eyebrows since taking the vits.
That is the east of my worries, 11 wigs (not all at the same time!) and an eyebrow pencil puts that all in the back ground. My immune system will hopefully kill off the flu bug.
Theo (my tumour) has been very kind lately, he hasn’t grumbled at all since the last time which was a couple of weeks ago and I think that was a temporary pain as it hasn’t come back.
All in all it is going well. I have a couple of students coming around to see me tomorrow as they are doing a short documentary on Mesothelioma as one of them lost her grandfather to it.
I will add a blog with more info about the documentary. Hopefully they will do well with their project.
