If you get sick goto the doctor don't wait...
« on: February 07, 2014, 03:44:12 PM »
Like the title says....just do it and don't wait...I came home from work to find out a good friend of passed away today....I still can't wrap my hands around this it seems impossible for him to be gone...he got sick 2 weeks ago and come to find out it was pneumonia and he refused to goto his Dr and now look he's gone...leaves behind a wife and 2 kids...I feel so bad for them...he was such a great man and would do anything for you...he would give you his shirt off his back.

 RIP my friend

 Also sorry to hear this. Do you know if the pneumonia developed from the flu? It's a tough call about going to the Dr. If you have the flu and go see one when you don't need to you run the risk of catching something else while there that, added to the flu, will kill you. Again, sorry about your friend.

sorry for your loss, prayers for his wife and kids, you know men are stubborn, its tough to go to the dr if your sick, they charge a ton to tell you to go home get rest and drink fluids.

I'm not sure if it was from the flu or not...I was told he's been sick and not feeling good for about 2 weeks

Sorry for your loss my friend... and I will second what you say... the flu is going around and it is leading to pneumonia in many cases...even in young people... I came down with it and so did two other people at my work (all had the flu shot)....go in at the early signs of flu and they will give you tamiflu...if you wait more than a day or two this will not be effective.

Was your buddy from Buckley?  One of my co-workers from Buckley lost one of his good friends last week and it sounds like the same situation. I think his friends name was Don. Either way, I extend my condolences to you and your friends family.
The best friend a guy could have asked for. RIP chasing pheasants in heaven Denali girl.

I had the flu a couple weeks ago and when I first came down with it I had my wife call and ask about Tamiflu. They said to just stay home and ride it out. Not worth going in for. They didn't sound too impressed with that drug.
