Anyone ever have pneumonia?

[TJarv]

I just got over it. I worked for 3 weeks with it doing physical labor in the Texas heat. It all depends on the individual I suppose. If your buddy is telling you he is fine and knows what's in store, I think you need to trust his judgement

The hospitalization was more than likely for intravenous antibiotic therapy. I think if he listens to his body and feels comfortable going he should. There is great fresh air here in upstate Ny... Just kidding. But in all honesty he will know best.

With my onetime bout of pneumonia the admissions people at the hospital must've seen that at the time I had phenominal health insurance, because they stuck me in the cardiac unit, claiming to be out of regular rooms. I was out of the hospital in like two days but boy did they pile up...guess I should say pad.. the expenses.

Anyhow they switched me to oral antibiotics after the two days of I.V. and all was fine by a couple days later. Hit the stogies again--gradually--right after the pills ran out. No flareups or recurrence in the intervening four or five years.

We have done this festival for years and he knows whats coming but that's the thing I don't always trust his judgement. You should see the crazy, money sucking women he dates. But seriously I'm just trying to look out for his well being. I suppose I should give him more credit. He was my best man afterall.
