The 82-year-old who plays cricket wearing an oxygen tank. This is a lovely story. But it reminds me how much weaker my dad was when diagnosed suddenly with the same terminal disease in late 2019. He was too weak to have portable oxygen. He spent the last 2.5 years of his life hooked up permanently to an oxygen machine at home. But it's lovely to see this gent happy. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-66727270 #Dundee #StAndrews #PulmonaryFibrosis #LungDisease #Respiratory #Terminal #Cricket #Scotland #Medicine #NHS

Pulmonary diseases are less-than-ZERO fun. I'd not wish my yesterday on more than a scant handful of people.
So far, today is better. My chest is a little tight, but I can breathe without undue discomfort or the use of my nebulizer. I'll likely need it this afternoon, but I hope not as I'm still pretty wiped out from three Albuterol vials and the coughing/choking fits that come with it.
Here's to a quiet day of easier breathing & #CreatingART.

This is a powerful feature about a #Newfoundland #mining town left with #contamination after an #asbestos #mine operated & closed there. Quote from article: "The prospect of long-term exposure to free-floating asbestos, over the last half-century, still hangs over the town today, Philpott says. Most people want it gone. Many fear they’re still breathing in what killed their parents, their neighbours." https://www.cbc.ca/newsinteractives/features/toxic-towns-baie-verte #toxic #tailings #cancer #lungdisease #fibrosis
