For about two weeks, I was a bit under the weather. It was flu season at school, so bad germs were free-flowing. When I finally broke down and went to the doctor (I couldn't talk anymore, my throat hurt so badly!), I received excellent advice.
"Do you like to swim?" he asked.
"Yes!" I replied.
"Then, go swimming about three times a day for the next three days. The salt water will do wonders for your cold. Just breathe deeply!" Dr. Stearns said.
No medicine required. I just drank plenty of water and went for swims. In about three days, I was feeling like my old self! TIS (This is Saipan!)
Speaking of the flu...Saipan has a flu mascot named Kung-Flu. With a steady beat of claps as the underlying beat, the words to the PSA go something like, "It is out there. Waiting for you. Be on the lookout for Kung-Flu." We wish we could find a recording to post, but a picture will have to suffice for now.
