The Common Cough

They call it the common cold
   but that name's getting old

The cough is surely more common
   when resistance doesn't have its game on

Boy, can I relate! I am just getting over a bad case of bronchitis, and am still coughing up chunks! (hope that wasn't too much information!)

Oh, no. More and more chunks, please! LOL. Thanks, Michelle. Hope that bronchitis never returns either!.... And how is David doing these days? Best wishes, Gershon

I imagine that you might get more than your fair share of those 'common coughs.' Here's to your health, Sandra! Warm wishes, Gershon
