Chronic traveler's diarreah! Whew!

I wouldn't wish that on ANYONE!!

('Cept maybe Ron Paul....)

A bunch of flus and colds about right now. Get well, Mr. Giuliani!

[Corin Stormhands]

She didn't go to no hospital.

Was she working 16-20 hours a day hundreds of miles from home and her personal physician? Rudy called his doctor. His doctor said "go to the hospital."

[dforest]

I hope he gets well soon. This too long campaign this time seems to be taking a toll. Why do we need 2 year campaigns?

By the way, I don’t want him as President, but I wish him no illness.

Could be his poll slipping is making him sick. He started out thinking he was a shoo in.

[ExSoldier]

Folks die from the flu. IMHO if you feel sick and don't seek medical advice you're stupid. Certainly too stupid to be running for President. I don't like him at all, but he's got my respect for not being stupid. Are you running for anything?

[Tax-chick]

I’m sorry to hear this. I hope he feels better soon! (It’s that time of year ...)

[wolfcreek]

Shake enough hands and kiss enough babies during flu season.......

Almost certainly a bug picked up from traveling. All the strange food you have to eat and drink.
Wishing him a long happy life in retirement!

EVERY CASE, and I mean every last one, is different.

The words flu-like symptoms could mean any of a dozen things, and each person experiences them according to their individuality and total circumstances. Your wife, or others you know of, have nothing to do with the specifics of the mayor’s condition.

Something such as dehydration for instance while a person is too nauseated to keep anything down, even fluids, could be serious and require extended IVs to get the body back in balance. Merely one of many examples...have no info and neither do you, on the mayor’s specifics.

Speaking as a lifelong Texan, I haven’t seen any of your self vaunted class exhibited on this thread...quite the opposite.

Satindoll, you are on to something, IMO.

Hope the mayor gets ok.

[Clintons Are White Trash]

His hospital is less than a mile from me - anybody want me to wave out the car window at him?

[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

IMHO if you feel sick and don't seek medical advice you're stupid.

IMHO a fool and his money are soon parted! What is a doctor going to do but take $50 and tell you to stay in bed, drink fluids, and wash your hands?

[stockstrader]

I agree. Not a fan of his at all either, but I hope he is ok.

[chilepepper]

Hmmmm, St Louis - too close to Arkansas to be safe...

[colorcountry]

I’ll add my prayers to yours too. Praying for recovery for Rudy. Then a win for the “best man” (who isn’t Rudy)

[Badeye]

Glad to hear this morning he’s going to be okay.

[kevkrom]

Weenie. I’ve never gone to a hospital because of flu-like symptoms I just tough it out. Like a man.

Not to pile on... but with the intense schedule and long days ahead, if he's in any way dehydrated it simply makes sense to go to the hospital. He's in no position to take a few days off at this point in the campaign. (Not that I'd mind, of course...)

[TheRightGuy]

former New York governor and Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani

makes you wonder what if anything in the article is true

[GovernmentIsTheProblem]

It’s possible “flu-like symptoms” are a euphemism for diarrhea

That might do him some good, considering how his stump is full of **it. :)

[UKrepublican]

Prayers for the mayor.

I hope he has a speedy recovery.

Maybe it was the fruitcake??

[George W. Bush]

Prayers that he gets some well needed rest in the hospital, and recovers quickly.

I'm hoping he recovers by late March. Until then, extended bed rest in the hospital would be prudent. We need to have many many photos of Rudi campaigning from his hospital bed.
