Guest guest Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 , I know how you feel because I am in the end stages of this monster and can't do the things that I once could and it is very discouraging at times to be so weak and so short of breath that I can bearly take a shower or make myself a sandwich for lunch. My husband had been doing most of the cooking and cleaning but we just found out that he has cancer and has waited so long to seek medical help that the prognosis is not good for him. He has refused chemo and he stays in bed most of the time. The docs don't think that he will be here long. I know that God has a plan for all of us and I try each day to find His plan for me for the day. I don't always suceed but I try. You keep hanging in there and we will all be praying for you each day. Hugs and Prayers! Barbara R IPF 1/2003 >> hello everyone> Its been long time. Guess you thought I had probably died or somoething. Well, I am still home. on Hosice.; Mostof the time I am not in my right mind. I take a whole lot of morpmhine and antivan.

I pray to be the next person to die from this. I try not to complain but only to remember that once I was a vibrant, smart happy individiual. I have had this disease for almost 6 years, so I have beat the odds. And eben this morning, being on the computer is something special. Just all pray hard that I can be strong.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Peggy, I was watching that fire on the news. I didn't think about the smoke blowing into FL. Please stay indoors and keep air conditioning running. That is so bad for your breathing. Hugs, Joyce D.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Hi Peggy, I assume you are talking about the fires that are burning in South Georgia. I live in NW Georgia (Dalton, Georgia) and that smoke has gone as far as Chattanooga, Tennessee which is thirty miles north of Dalton on I-75. We have even had some fires in our area - one fire was in a rural area north of Dalton near some apartments and another fire occured on Fort Mountain which is located in Murray County, next to where I live in Dalton, and it moved very close to an expensive subdivision on Fort Mountain. There are so many things that bother me that it is hard to determine which thing is bothering me now. Right now the 90 degree heat is really bothering me. Is the smoke blowing down to your area? I wouldn't be surprised if it did. Thanks for asking and I truly hope it rains Thursday and puts out all of those fires.
