    Ship them all to me. Problem solved.

    Seriously though, your snakes are very well cared for and hardy. You could just cool them down a bit. They can wait.

    So sorry to hear your not feeling well but it's very important that you comply with DRs orders. I had pneumonia back in 2001 and didn't even know it until I suddenly spiked a fever of 103 and started coughing up blood. Dr. said I was about 24 hours away from death when I went in to see him. That crap is definitely not fun. Take care of yourself or you won't be around to take care of your snakes at all. You know darn well they will be fine for a week or two. You can make it up to them when you're feeling better.

    Re: Pneumonia

    Thanks everyone. I got a lot of rest yesterday and last night. Thankfully, when I got out of bed this morning (I had to, to receive a box from Joe anyways) and took some medicine, I felt much better and was able to move around the house a bit. I sat out on the front porch for hours today. In fact my other symptoms are gone, aside from the respiratory ones.... The antibiotic he gave me is very strong, and the inhaler helps a lot. Had chest Xrays yesterday and was told the doctor would call me if anything was wrong. He never called, so I think that's a good thing.
