This will be short. I got very sick Sat. night and continued to get worse. Early Sun. morning I was having such a hard time breathing I called the ambulance. My blood pressure was 80/46. In the ER they said I was severely dehydrated and had pneumonia. I just got home a little while. I'm on oxygen all the time and still get short of breath whenever I try to do anything so I'm going to have a home-health nurse and nusing assistant for a while. I have to believe that after my course of antibiotics and steriods that I will be back to where I was. I refuse to believe anything else and I will not smoke.

I am utterly exhausted. You can not get any rest in the hospital!

I'm sorry I didn't get to throw in my unsmoked cigarettes. It was 390 cigs. I hope I find out how many were thrown in.

Talk to you all soon

Connie

I'm 59 with severe COPD. I've decided I really want to live and I won't if I smoke. I have 4 grown boys, a grandson and granddaughter due on 9/10. Lots of reasons to live.
