    • I’m With You

      From BoosBear August 18, 2008

      You only have to remember that I am with you for the love and support you need as with the first 14yrs. Always remember that your ailments dont define you, they contribute only a very small part of what makes you unique. I love you. Your Bear

    • Close Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency

      My name Is Heather and I have Alpha-1. I was diagnosed about 12 years ago, becuase I was being tested for Lupus and this showed up. Of course at that time, my doctor told me don't smoke and you'll be fine. In the past couple of years, my breathing, exercise tolerance and chest pain has become worse.Now, I see my pulmonolgoist sometimes once a week. I do 4 breathing treatments a day and I am no longer working. I feel lost.
