Teacher, 35, on life support after catching the flu

A mother-of-five special education teacher is on life support after contracting two flu strains - and her family fear the second was contracted in hospital.

Crystal Whitley, 35, of Mullin, Texas, was diagnosed with the flu on January 22 and given Tamiflu to treat her ailment - just four months after giving birth.

Two days after her diagnosis, Whitley's husband called 911 in panic, and she was airlifted to a hospital in Dallas where she was diagnosed with sepsis, double pneumonia, and MRSA, a staph infection that is resistant to many antibiotics.

Speaking to Daily Mail Online, distraught friends and family members of Crystal, who has two biological children and three step-children, say they're in shock as doctors try to wean her off her ventilator while fighting the deadly viruses.

Seems like another case of the medical community treating her wrong.
Maybe they should be listening to their patients instead of dismissing them.

7:47 OR maybe it isn't the flu in the first place and is some other virus??? NO couldn't be that right???? no never!!!! You clowns... It is a genetically modified virus that is making you people sick and dying, like the H1N1 was and did...

Also, I would like to add, if you people are so adamant about how we need the shot and how it works, explain why people still get sick, even after a flu shot and why people are dying from the so called flu virus currently????

Dirt has more brains than you people... plain and simple

Ignoring the initial onset is not wise and could prove fatal.Every single one of us know ahead of time when we're getting the flu.Some choose not to treat each individual symptom as they arise.First the aching joints,then the fever.Virtually no one gets the flu all at once without warning.

I am with you.
Fort Detrick is very good at manufacturing genetically modified virus.
