Lynn a.k.a. Treehorn I live in Maryland I am in an Administrative career. My favorite color is Red I enjoy reading.
4/20/02 I was diagnosed in May 1999, I was going to have some spinal surgery and told my Dr. that I had COPD and he referred me to a pulmonary specialist. He told me without even doing the recommended tests what I had. I had the surgery, which worked wonderfully and started on Prolastin in March 2000. I have my good days and bad days, but I refuse to let this disease get to me. I am the only one in the family who has this and luckily all of my children don’t have it either. They are carriers only. I still run the two younger kids around to dance, soccer, and hockey and I try to go to all of their function. It is getting harder on me but I am stronger than this disease. Lynn |
