Man flu is a life changing condition, it affects 1 in every 2 adults in the United Kingdom. It has complications which can alter the very near future of a person. Scientist are baffled as to why this condition only affects men.

I contracted man flu on the 26th of September 2016. Every night I go to bed wondering if I have enough tissues to see out the night. My newborn child Annabelle may grow up only knowing a father who is snotty, bemoaning, energyless and too Ill to get a lager from the fridge.

It has destroyed my wife, all she can now say (must be from the mental strain) is 'man up', 'take some tablets' 'when I had a cold I wasn't this bad' and 'get your own bloody lager' I think I may have lost her for good.

The money will go to try various cures such as red wine, kebabs a sky sports subscription and a day at the races.
