Sandwich Teen Dies From H1N1

The H1N1 flu strain (aka swine flu) has claimed the life of another area teen.

Michelle Fahle, a 14-year-old student at Naperville North High School, died two weeks ago and had been diagnosed with the H1N1 virus, though a previously undiagnosed heart condition is believed to be the main contributing factor to her death. All told, the state's Department of Public Health reported 20 H1N1-related deaths as of last Friday. more ›
