for those of you that don't know me, I am 56 yrs old and have severe copd. My mother died at 58 of coped. I also have a nodule in my lung that has grown over the past yr. They are talking about taking it out but I don't know if it's malignant or not. I am still trying to quit smoking. I am in pulmonary rehab and will attend 3, 90 minute smoking cessation classes starting in May. If this doesn't work, I am done. I have smoked for 43 yrs. I can't do anything without being short of breath. I really have no quality of life. I am going to keep blogging here just so you can follow my journey. Believe me, you don't want to live like I am and you don't want to die like I will in the next 2 yrs if I don't quit smoking
