About a child that was put up for adoption?
Most of you know my son's story. If not his child was put up for adoption with out his consent. In court they could not find him unfit. He is still fighting for his son. The couple couldn't adopt him, He has visiation once a month which is coming up this weekend. I go with him because this couple has gone as to lie about child abuse. Even got the child to say my son shot him and did other things to him which is lies. OK question we live in Texas there is a lot of schools closing due to this flu. In fact my son's daughter and sister to the baby is 5 and her school might let tomorrow. The mother or both children said the daughter can go but has to be back for dentist appt early Monday We are going to drive since it would be safer. Should we go or not. What would you do? There are no cases where he lives. But we miss him.
Should we still go to visit him or with the flu scare should we wait until next month.

I'd go, providing your immune system is normal, no expected chemo, surgeries, or anything like that.
The normal flu kills about 36,000 people in the US every year. As a precaution, I'd use hand sanitizer, avoid public places without it, and wash your hands often. As an extra precaution, take an extra box of baby wipes to wipe hands and arms, but wash your face often first with them. Use the ones with alcohol and aloe, so it will kill germs, and be gentle to the skin.
Texas is a biggggg state, and the cases are limited. I think the news has made it more scary than what they should. For all the people who have this strain of the flu, most are recovering fine, Mexico's hospitals are seeing fewer patients, not more, and reasonable precautions should get you through. Take some masks, but I'd leave them in the back seat, just in case you see anyone acting nauseated, then I'd use them, and after use, throw them away, don't try to re-use them.
Good luck on everything-but go see that beautiful baby. He needs some stability here.
