It’s been an infirmary at the Sherrill house this spring with hacking and coughing rocking the house at all hours and enough trips to the doctor to send their kids through college.Even I, the iron man of the household, was down for a week with the Warren County Funk – you know – that stuff folks get around here that the doctors can’t classify into words.“It’s an upper respiratory infection,” they tell you when you get checked, if you’re one of the lucky ones. The unlucky ones get diagnosed with the flu or strep.The Sherrill household batted .1000 during doctor visits. Jack had strep not once, but twice, in two weeks while the wife, who showed similar symptoms to my Warren County Funk, was diagnosed with the flu and had to take a week off.
