From the hospital

Hello friends. It came on sudden but i ended up in the ER last Wednesday and was just sent from the hospital to a facility for rehab. I suffer COPD. I look forward to getting home but not sure how long the doctor is thinking for this. Just thought i would let friends know. Take care and please send any positive vibes, thank you

I recently spent a couple days in the hospital with a COPD flare that came on suddenly. The Drs, and therapists were fantastic. They did the breathing treatments every 4 hrs at first and hit the steroids and antibiotics right away. It was an amazingly quick recovery and I feel better than ever. I hope you have great results.

I know what it's like to deal with lung issues, my mom had chronic pulmonary fibrosis, and we were with her on all her hospital, then nursing home stays. The more you can move around, the better off you will be, at least based on mom's experience.

always seems to get better so much faster once you see the hospital in the rear view mirror. Work hard, text lots, keep us up to date on how you are doing.
