Pulmonary conditions are scary! When you can't breathe, nothing else
matters - a line from the American Lung Assoc. and so true..I was diagnosed last August with a very severe lung disease and my doctor referred me for a lung transplant evaluation, though I'm hoping I won't need one soon - going to New York City in about three weeks for testing and a second opinion. So sorry to hear about your friend - has anything been said to her about a transplant? I didn't know about the lung disease/pet bird connection until I got sick - very surprising! And yes, always could be worse - I still tell myself that..

Re:

I wanted to let you know that my son is home in Michigan for a two week leave, on July 3 he returns to Afghanistan to finish his tour of duty which means he will be there until the end of the year! The draw down is a farce to me for the President is only seeking to pull out the 30,000 additional troops he sent over before his term is up! It's part of his reelection plan and this is one thing he will use to say he kept his campaign promise! The draw down simply means that when units return to the U.S. they will not be replaced! And we will not have our soldiers out of Afghanistan until 2014 and all that is contingent upon the ability of the Afghans to secure their own country! For me all of this seems highly unlikely because they have many untrustworthy folks in power and positions who truly are not doing their jobs! It's a mess and all I truly want is for my son's deployment to be over and nothing happen to him! And in 2013 his contract will be over with the government and I won't have to worry about regarding the military! So here's to 2013~ sam

in life that isn't found to be harmful? I know birds carry diseases but how sad to have e beloved family pet cause such danger.
Writing out your troubles here where so many people care for you, well it is a good place to get it off your chest so to say...so write on darling.

It takes nothing but time to listen to your gabby friend. She needs that so much right now. All people who live long enough will need that in time. I am so sorry this is happening to her. She will get rid of her bird I hope even if it will be difficult. Be blessed, you have a lot going on now.
