    • About Me

      My husband and I have been married for 15 years. He is already functioning as my caregiver and is truly a wonderful man. I retired in 2003 and looked forward to a life of leisure. Alas, my years of smoking finally caught up with me, and I was diagnosed with COPD last August and quit smoking 3 months later. I still function quite well and have a nice circle of friends, but this disease is devastating nonetheless.

      Hope your week is going great, and you are feeling well. I did like to read about your husband and how he helps. It is wonderful when you read that someone is so greatful for what the partner does for them. Keep up with the great attitude.

      Hi Aviara, I see you joined the GERD group. I joined it last month. It seems that COPD and GERD can go together. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. And I hope you are having a beautiful Easter. Hugs, Sue
