Peggy,

I agree. Whomever wrote #3 had serious OD!

I do #1, but I was doing it wrong. I would try keeping my back and head straight. Slumping is better.

In this case, I think SOS means help. So SOS for SOB means .......help for shortness of breath.

You know, when we start understanding one another, it is going to be scary!

Ding 1 and Ding 2.....that is us.
