Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Noelle, What a miracle and for those of us waiting for a transplant, your post is a much needed breathe of sweet air! My God continue to bless you and your husband.

He is now back at home (has been for almost a month) and it´s as if he had resurrected (the disease was particularly savage with him, he went from being 100% healthy to being connected to a life support machine in three months). People who haven´t seen him in six months can´t tell the difference. It´s a miracle. His espirometries yield in excess of 100% of FVC, his oxygen levels fluctuate between 96% and 98% while exercising and he feels and looks like a completely healthy person. We will still remain connected to this fantastic group that helped us so much and, although fibrosis is luckily no longer part of our lives, if our experience can help any of you, we will be glad to try and use it for the best. All the best and thanks again so much for all your helpful support Noellephredta11blcopper (DOT) net escribió: ...friend of mine tried out a hi-tech toilet in the men's room in aTokyo hotel.
