Dear Boss,
"I think I'm going to have the flu next week."
So might a letter read to my boss as I will begin injecting myself with the flu...I mean, Interferon on Monday. Flu-like symptoms are the most common side effect to new Interferon patients. In a few weeks, I should adapt to the higher doses of this protein, which is naturally produced in our bodies when we have the flu. Until then, I think I'll call in sick. :)
You can pray that I cope well with the side effects. I am usually a lousy sick person, as most men are, and Rachelle doesn't need to deal with 3 kids at once.
