Every wife or girlfriend can understand the meaning behind this one. I liked the drama to it. I have never known a man to weather the storm well. Loved the humor and tongue in cheek feel to this. nicely done.

Indeed a "man cold" does seem to have drama as one of the side effects, hehe. Thanks for the great feedback and review!!

This definitely made me smile. This is the kind of cold my husband gets. A real man cold. Good luck in the contest.

There is no surviving such a tragic disease--or so he will want you to believe. He needs someone to take care of him and offer lots of TLC. Humorous and the artwork just tops it off. Good luck in the contest.

I have a woman cold right now and it sure is miserable. I liked you humor about thinking you might die.

I think it would read better it there was a period after "sigh"? Just my opinion.

How very true this is. At the firt sign of a sniffle, a man crawls under 30 blankets and calls up his mom or grandma (even if he has a wife!) for chicken soup. But in a major hunting accident with limbs missing "just a scratch!"

This Just for Fun (5-7-5) writing prompt entry fulfills the syllable count perfectly while delivering a knowing "blow" to those who sneeze and suffer. All the best in the contest! Fun. :0 GracieAnn
