[Guest guest]

I have been doing a lot of posting in the last couple of weeks. Being

in the hospital I have that kind of time. Most of everything that I

have posted on has been directly related to my asthma, but I have also

spoken about emotional issues and stressors in my life. I believe that

this condition (which is rapidly deteriorating) touches all parts of my

life. I have thoroughly enjoyed being able to be a sounding board for

others (Terry - I love and support you)(Alana - you are a valuable

voice) (D. ston, Sherry, Donna,Walking Lou, Carol, Debra,

Lou..sorry lots more names the past few days) as well as them listening

to me. Even if I have a toothache or a fight with my family because

they can't understand where I am at (hypothetical situations) - well

that's not asthma - but how does that stress my body. Do I have to up

my asthma meds? Sometimes. I guess my point is that I believe our

asthma touches so many parts of our lives. Controls my life and

mindset a good bit. I love this group as it is. I do not want to see

it degenerate to a question/answer session with tunnel vision. I

believe the magic and power of this group is in the fact that we can be

away for a while then need some support and immediately find that

others are going through exactly what we are. Thank you for being

here. Please do not change.
