RE: Welcome Alana!

[Guest guest]

As one day progresses to another and although we know what our future is, we don't know how long that future is. You will find this easier to live with and with family, this support group and even I go to professional mental health counselling. I have been dx with Ipf for 2 years and have more good days than bad. My bad days come when young people find themselves joining this board. You will find people like Bruce, Mama-Sher, Joyce, Beth and others too numerous to list that are truly compassionate and will help you here.
