CANCELLED the trip. We are both too sick to go. I'd bet by the way we feel, this is more than just a respiratory illness, but maybe, dare I say... the FLU. I had a flu shot, but the effectiveness is over-rated as the current strains aren't discoverable at the time of vaccine manufacture. I may have exposed myself to aborted chick embryos, mercury, formaldehyde, and other toxins for no good reason. Mike is equally as sick and did not have the shot. It is day 5 on the couch with my aching head, stuffy nose, fever, and general misery. Even if I did feel better by tomorrow, somehow I don't think I will be strong enough for surgery and recovery. I am mostly afraid of flying with congestion. I've heard it can cause your eardrum(s) to rupture... Oww. Not risking that. With any luck I can reschedule for as early as next week.
