Maybe to normal people, having the flu in December, January, March and June seems normal. To me, it seems very odd.

Doesn't seem odd to me. Many people--I'm one--tend to refer to nasty colds as "the flu". And it isn't unusual for some of us to get a number of nasty colds in a row. Some winters you never really get over the first one, and it keeps coming back. And don't forget that for the past two or three years there's been a really rotten strain going around: I've known several people here and in the States who ended up in the hospital, severely ill. (All recovered.)

Not relevant to Edwarda's case at this moment, but I find that getting two flu shots, about six weeks apart, really does help.
