Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Kathie..."deteriorating but stable." Hmmm. That's one to ponder huh. Although, I guess that is exactly where I am also. We lived in Woodburn, in the Senior Estates, for a couple of years. After my dx we decided to sell while the market was good. Our home sold in 3 days! When ever you come this way, do let me know so I can at least meet you, even briefly. We don't go north but I will if we set up a meeting sometime. How often do you get to Woodburn? Have a good one.

And once or twice when I felt I needed to back on my sats wouldn't drop "low enough" to satisfy insurance guidelines (in other words I was still conscious lol). My PCP was great, she told me if they weren't low enough from walking in the halls we would take a few stairs or even head out to the parking lot! She is wonderful.Like many here the 6 minute walk is fine as a measure but in real life when we "walk", we're carrying our O2, or groceries or pushing a vacuum or whatever. Not strolling down a long hall with a tech or therapist carrying our air.Kathie NSIP '96, PAHWA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
