Diagnosis

15.7

Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Scarring on the lungs resulting in weakness, diminished lung capacity, predisposition to chest infections and intolerance to exercise. I may one day need a lung transplant.

I know my enemy. I can look it in the eyes. I am not going to let my scars, either on my lungs or my skin, get the better of me.

I'm in pulmonary rehab and seeing a physiotherapist.

I'm going to be in the best shape I can be.

I refuse to die of this disease.

    I wished you wouldn't suffer from this disease.. Nothing but the best wishes to you and all the power you need to fight against it.
