The Swine Flu

As if I didn't have enough to worry about! My in-laws left on their vacation to Cancun yesterday. And the Swine Flu was in my face everywhere I looked! The Sunday paper, the news, MSN.com. My own parents are freaking out about it as well. My mom keeps sending me articles she finds online and calling me to tell me things she has just heard about it. Like there is even anything I can do about it. People who live in Mexico are walking around wearing masks to protect themselves. People who live in the US are bringing it back with them and spreading it to their loved ones... And my in-laws are in the middle of it all! So now I have to break it to my husband that WE(as in him too) are going to have to avoid his parents like the plague when they return next week. And I'm not even sure how long we should keep our distance.
