Meningitis Warning

RECEIVED Tue., Jan. 6, 2004

Please help us get the word out warning people of meningitis. There have been several who have died this week from it. I am a survivor of meningitis, but like most, I was told I had the flu and sent home with a decongestant. It took me going to another hospital to find out I had meningitis. I spent five months in the hospital, including two in ICU on life support. Please help me get the word out to warn people since the flu is so bad this year. I don't want anyone else to die or suffer like I have.
