Hey there hun,Sorry to hear about this time of year being a bit hard for you at the moment.

I dont recon that you will have picked up what ever your co-worker had even if they did have something you dont know, thingis if it is food poisoning then you will not be able to catch it!

think it would be good for you to read the storys of people being cured and who are now able to live a normal life.
May help you come to terms with this and how some people eventually manage to cure.

and hun you arent alone at all,we are all here for you,keep us posted and rant/vent as much as you need

*hugs*
