Notes -
I'll admit to being that guy. I feel like I get sick less often than my wife, but my worst sicknesses on any given year are always worse than my wife's.
I'm pretty sure we are getting the same sicknesses just reacting differently to them. Sicknesses tend to burn through me fast and hard. I am very sick for a few days and then mostly back to normal. Whereas my wife is often just a little sick for a week or two. Just over the last two weeks with holidays and the spreading of germs everywhere I've had two mild fevers (101-103). She has had none. I have also had a light cough, she has a heavy nasty sounding cough. For two days I had one of the worst sore throats I can remember, literally was drooling to avoid swallowing. Its fine now. She has had a scratchy throat the whole two weeks.
