That is sad. So young. Too young. I feel sorry for your son's loss.
With other forms of influenza, the very young and the very old are in the highest risk group. H1N1 seems to be targeting those who are age 25 and younger. That's quite frightening.

I had a two panel cartoon on my desk at work for the longest time that showed a patriot cheering on the soldiers as they marched off to war in the first panel, and showed the same patriot cutting benefits from veteran's entitlements in the second panel. The caption read, "Support the troops ... until they need us."
We all need to make our voices heard about this. The way our government treats the troops is shameful.
