Dear Gayle,
Thank you so much for taking the time to discuss this with me. My friend is a fighter. She has been fighting COPD for some time now. She is on oxygen 24/7 before this diagnoses. My fear for her, is the fact that she is in poor health to begin with. She has 2 masses in the trachea. One is around 3cm's. She is a strong and beautiful person. I told her to talk to God, that he is the one miracle worker, that there is.
I will also keep you and your husband in my prayers and I wish you both the very best. There is nothing like this for clearing your mind on what truly is important in this life. May God guide us all on this journey...Tamie
