mendous economic growth and opportunity that this county has seen under decades of Republican leadership. In a way, I am proof of the American Dream. Having achieved my highest goals, it is time for me to give back to my community and to ensure that future immigrants and future generations have access to the same dreams that I did.”

Terry Adams for Justice First Court of Appeals

Terry Adams has been handling appeals in the appellate courts of Texas for over 30 years. This includes courts of appeals across Texas, the Texas Supreme Court, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, and the U.S. Su preme Court. It makes sense, then, that he is seeking election for Justice First Court of Ap peals Place 5.

“I have always believed that serving the citi zens of Texas as a judge or justice is the highest and best calling in the law. Working at the Supreme Court of Texas out of law school solidi fied that belief.” Adams and his wife Anne have three children who are now out of college and are living independently, so he feels this is a prime time to seek this open seat.

A graduate of Denison University and South Texas College of Law, where he was Editor-in-Chief of the South Texas Law Review, Adams is a conservative Republican and highly experienced appel late attorney. He has been recognized by Texas Super Lawyers and The Best Lawyers in America as one of the top appellate attorneys in Texas.

Adams values not just fairness but timeliness, when it comes to the law. “I believe that justice delayed is justice denied. My highest priority as a Justice on the First Court of Appeals will be to work hard and apply the law fairly to the facts of each case, so that the cases that come before me will be decided correctly under the existing law and as expeditiously as possible.

“I am proud to be endorsed by Texans for Lawsuit Reform I will bring to the First Court of Appeals Place 5 a conservative judicial phi losophy, a strong work ethic, and a dedicated commitment to excellence. I will uphold the Constitution and follow the law as written. I will not legislate from the bench.

“So, if you believe that your next Justice on the First Court of Appeals Place 5 should be a conservative Republican and a highly experienced appellate attorney who can hit the running, then I would be honored to earn your vote in the Republican Primary on March 3.

Shandon Phan for Congress

“My parents’ homeland, Vietnam, was destroyed by socialists. I see a rising tide of socialism in America and am determined not to let it succeed here. For me, it is a deeply personal fight. This country has given me and my fami ly everything we have: opportunity, education, the chance to pursue our dreams. I can’t stand silently by when it is threatened.” With this powerful statement, Shandon Phan shares his number one reason for running for the U.S. House to represent the 22nd

Congressional District.

For years, Phan worked in the legal profession on timely issues that included economic development, taxation, individual liberty, and immigration. He has an insider’s perspective on policies and how he can work to fix or improve them based on real-world experience. “Before I went to law school, I worked many difficult jobs: wash ing dishes, mowing lawns, painting houses, and on a shop floor. This gives me a real bond with many of our citizens who are working in these kinds of jobs now and are struggling to provide for their families and the challenges they face in pursuit of the American dream.

“I’ve also worked around the country on behalf of Republican candidates. I have demonstrated strong loyalty to the party in good years and bad. Given my background as a legal immigrant who is America First and Pro-Trump, I think I will be a powerful voice not only in my own race but in ensuring that we keep Texas red.”

The congressional field is a crowded one, with fifteen candidates on the ballot. Phan realizes he has to fight to get his message out and to connect with voters. He is working to get Fort Bend’s sizable popu lation of citizens with roots in Vietnam and the rest of South-East Asia into first, identifying as Republicans, and second, voting in the Republican Primaries. He wants his campaign to be about more than this race. He wants it to be about the future of the Republican Party. He has a “takes no prisoner” approach to his campaign, with a strong stance on who he is and what he wants to accomplish.

“If you want to be represented by someone who values civility over everything and won’t say anything politically incorrect, don’t vote for me. If you want a congressman who will stay out of the news and stay in line with establishment Republicans, I am not your guy. And if you want someone who speaks perfect English but whose words have no meaning and no heart, find someone else.

“When I was younger, I studied karate, and my childhood hero was Bruce Lee. I’m not going to DC to make friends; I’m going to throw elbows. I will fight for you, our future and our values.”

It seems to happen every year around this time. You develop a runny nose or your throat hurts, and you wonder; is it a cold or influenza (flu)?

It is very important to be able to differentiate between the common cold and influenza. Although many of the symptoms may be similar, the treatments are very differ ent, and the consequences of not receiving the necessary attention can be life threatening in some cases.

An important clue to determine which sickness you’re dealing with is how quickly your symptoms worsen. If the symptoms appear and worsen slowly, we should consider a cold. If the symptoms attack and worsen rapidly, we should consider influenza.

Your doctor can usually perform a test in their office that will help determine if your symptoms are related to a cold or influenza.

Both are contagious, but here are some important dif Continued on page 40

ferences. If you have influenza, it is particularly important that you limit contact with others, because it can cause serious illness or even death in the most vulnerable people (such as preg nant women, children under 2 years of age, adults 65 years of age, and people with compromised immune systems). Influenza has an established course of duration, and the treatment should be delivered and guided by your doctor.

How to prevent colds and the flu: Wash your hands frequently and avoid persons with symptoms when possible. Maintain good overall health through proper rest, exercise, and food choices; a strong immune system helps prevent infection and reduce its duration.

To prevent influenza, we recommend getting vaccinated against influenza every year, es pecially the most vulnerable populations such as children from 6 months, pregnant women, adults from 65 years of age, and people with chronic diseases.

Last year’s flu season was one of the most severe in years and caused approximately 80,000 deaths in the United States.

At Brookshire Family Practice, we are here to assist and take care of you. Contact us to receive your flu shot, and ask about any symptoms you are experiencing.
