My 22 yr. old daughter has delt with the West Nile Virus for several weeks now. She is recovering well and is out of danger , but side effects still linger. Please pray for Kristren for a complete recovery. God Bless You,
Tin Bender

We will add Kristren to our prayer list.

Chas.

Me too.

+!. Glad to hear she is recovering.

Prayer sent.

Added to my prayers!

Been there, done that, and I'm very sympathetic to your daughter. I had a very mild case several years ago, but it was extremely unpleasant for about two weeks.

As I understand the disease, it seems that about 80% of those infected are asymptomatic. About 80% of those who do display symptoms will show mild to severe flu-like symptoms, with fever, lethargy, overall muscle soreness and moderate to extreme neck stiffness. (I was in that category.)

About 20% of symptomatic patients face severe to life-threatening symptoms, especially the very young, very old, and immuno-compromised patients.

I had Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever when I was 15, then West Nile when I was 40. That leaves Lyme or Eastern Equine to complete a hat trick, and I'd rather not go for the insect-vector triumvirate, thankyouverymuch.

Thank all of you so much. As I was doing yard work yesterday I had a couple od mosquitos try to visit me.I am now using a product by Safe Solutions called Cactus Juice. Very pleasant fragrance and I highly recommend this. They are at http://www.cactusjuicetm.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
