OK you are pretty normal JS . You could have been a goner if your Gran had not know better. Well done for making out as you have.

I cannot imagine all that you went through back then...My paternal grandmother was sick for a year with rheumatic fever. She got it back in 1918.

What an interesting post.  I've always heard about Reyes Syndrome, but I have never known of anyone who had suffered from it.
