Nobody gets serious colds and bronchitis once a month.

Not that I don't think that she could be faking, and the drama princess shit wears thin, but...*raises hand* I have had bronchitis, pneumonia, and bronchitis again, all in the past three months. it's fucking driving me nuts, because I KNOW how it looks, but...damn.

Stupid lungs.

On the other hand, you could always suggest to her that she see a respiratory therapist. That's what they're going to make me do.
