“He who allows his day to pass by without practicing generosity and enjoying life's pleasures is like a blacksmith's bellows: he breathes but does not live.”

So, Tuesdays (and Thursdays) are Pulmonary Rehab clinic for the next six weeks.

I'm the youngest (by 15yrs) and the fittest of the group, which I give thanks for each time I attend. I'm so glad I have 50% lung function. The guy I went round the circuit with today was carrying an oxygen tank. I gave thanks that I managed to give up smoking before the oxygen thang happened to me. We have an hour of 'interesting stuff' about our lungs and their condition and we have an hour or stretching and exercise. I'm amazed at how little the folks in my group know about their condition and how little they exercise. The circuit we do is hard work and it makes me breathless, but that's what it's meant to do.
