I'm not sure I want to know why, and no matter what the research said, I know my mum loves me and did the best she could while she was pregnant. Getting the flu or not getting the flu, I am sure that something, somehow, somewhere along the lines I would have developed bipolar. Its a bit like people who develop a form of cancer, I think you are either predesposed to get it or your not. Some people do all the right things and still get cancer, others all the wrong things and live healthy full lives.
Personally I think so many of the health issues we have today are due to the chemicals we have created over the last century which are now impregnated in our air, water and food sources..........

Good point about the chemicals. They say the average life expectancy is longer than in the past, but that's because of better treatments, not because we are healthier or have less disease.
Oh yea, I mentioned the flu thing because of my fascination with the correlation between the two.
