Foreword
Life can be hard, and we all need to lean on something every once in a while, so I wrote this book to help you all. Recently a flu has been going around the globe that is quite different from other flus of times past. It seems to be a mixture of the normal flu and the SARS virus. I became comitted to researching it last year, but to be honest it is very very difficult to do so. Not only is there alot of misinformation, lies, and fake news coming flooding search engines, useful information about the virus is being suppressed! It's been over a year with no changes to the matter, and I am BEYOND disgusted by this situation.

This all culminated into me catching the WuFlu recently, which I was told would be "the worst flu you'd have in your life" or "twice as deadly as the flu", I was shocked to find out this was hardly the case. I remember when me and Joshua were kids, I would catch flus way worse than this! Nevertheless, people are passing on due to this disease, and alot of the effects can be mitigated if the correct measures are taken swiftly.

In this book I will recount my journey to recovery while simultaneously giving tips and tricks on how to lessen the effects of WuFlu.

Prevention
Fortunately there is alot you can do to prevent initial infection from taking place. Washing your hands, consuming vitamin C, and regular exercise and bathing can prevent getting sick from many diseases, not just WuFlu. WuFlu does NOT need rubbing alcohol to be destroyed, that is a total LIE! Regular soap and water can get the job done just as good!

Mitigating Symptoms
You most likely will not know if you have WuFlu right away, because it has a wide variety of symptoms. If you do find out that you do have WuFlu, do not panic! There are actions that you can take that can help you. When I first started having symptoms of being tired and nausea, I knew I had to contain myself right away. First thing you need to be is in a well ventilated and/or cooled room with a bed. Getting a fever is debilitating, and I was unlucky enough to have been in an unventilated and hot room.

So I opened doors, windows, I did everything I could to keep cool. Had the fever persisted, things would have gotten alot worse, but as soon as I brought in fresh cool air, my fever immediately subsided, though I was still physically weakened.

For a couple days I tried to recover by eating chicken noodle soup, but this was doing nothing for me. I needed to do more research. I had been curious on why WuFlu had so many different symptoms all at once, it was unlike any other virus I knew of.

My research lead me to conclude that the WuFlu doesn't act like other flu viruses at all. It attacks the cell walls of blood cells, causing them to burst. Without blood cells, basic functions of the body become difficult. I wanna tell you, my face glowed when I learned of this fact. I finally had the answer to how to recover quicker, and I was the perfect test subject!

One of the quickest ways to encourage more blood cell growth is consuming red meat, because red meat has alot of Iron. I hopped into my Jeep and commuted to the nearest Culver's restaurant. I was barely able to drive, but I was adamant all would be better once I got there.

I ordered a Culver's Deluxe double burger basket with fries and a Pepsi. Within 10 minutes of eating the burger, 50% of my mobility came back, and I was slowly recovering. IT WAS RELIEF! My tears of victory not only because of my own recovery, but because WuFlu was mitigated naturally.

I still had persistent coughs, occasionally, throughout the ordeal, but they eventually went away as well.

Afterward
The main focus during initial symptoms should be vitamin B intake with lots of rest in a cool room The reason for vitamin B and not C right away, is that during fevers is when your blood cell count is at it's lowest and are currently under attack, so it is more optimal to increase blood cell count rather than reinforce cells with vitamin C.

After fever subsides, eat (preferrably non-fatty) red meats for an iron boost, and vitamin C, until you are better and symptom free!

Thank you so much for reading this! I'd like to thank Joshua and Barry for supporting me, as well as Aunt Viv and the rest of The Fireseed Family! I am doing well here at the family home here in Oklahoma, can't wait to catch up with my friends again soon! Later!
