I am not a Dr. so take this as it is. The fever itself is not the problem. Your body is trying to rid itself of something that shouldn't be there. So it responds by sterilizing your system. 104 is not so outrageous, provided it doesn't persist over a couple of days. More than three days or so will probably need antibiotics or something to help it out. Abnormally high fevers can cause brain damage and other problems with the neuro system. Hope this helps.

You could say death is just commuting to the best welfare there is.
