Guest guest Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Jack, I don't need one as I just received my new one in the mail today. They even upgraded it for me for free as the one I ordered is back-ordered several weeks out. I'm writing to say that you're a very kind man, and I think that you deserve a big hug! So this is for you! ((((((HUG))))))!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Jack, you are a good man. I looked at your web site. Also very interesting. In your writing it seems you have a lot of life experience to draw on.

Groups discuss everything related to cats. , Thank for your kind thoughts, but please don't place a halo on my head. I have a dirty little secret that I will share with you: I do this because it makes me feel good. It is a high that I don't think drugs and alcohol could ever achieve (I may err here because I've never used either one). I learned this from my older brother who is also my hero and role model. We are a Great Depression family, although I remember little of it. Most of my memories start with World War II. I do know that my brother was working at age 10 to help support the family (my parents and seven children). He continued to support the family until all the children were on their own. Even then he was helping them while they were getting established. During the War, I know that he was helping hundreds of children while stationed in England, and later in Okinawa. Today, at 86, after three heart attacks, a quintuple by-pass and rheumatoid arthritist of the spine, he still is helping old ladies with their electrical and plumbing problems. I asked him once why he did this. "It makes me feel good," he said. With a hero like that, and knowing that it also makes me feel good, I could not but help someone in need. It doubles the pleasure knowing that it is someone with whom I share this affliction called fibrosis. Thanks to all of you who have said nice things about this old reprobate. I accept them with pleasure. And I thank you for taking me into the fold and letting be one of you Jack 79/UIP - IPF -06/05 Maine 02 meters If there is one thing that has been impresed upon me from reading so many posts it is the importance of having an 02meter and the frequent monitoring of your SATS (do I have the right acronym here?)
