Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 , Glad to hear you take the time to do something like that. It must be very rewarding. have a piece you created yourself!! I started making bread after I got sick. It started because I can only eat organic. Food stamps do not cover much and the bread (good bread) unable to find organic. So I had 2 reasons. However I really like it. It gives me a vent. A dust mask takes care of the flour while dry. Use organic flour, organic yeast, organic whatever else, but it is still cheaper than buying it and gives me therapy. Being sedentary not good, so i get to do a little exercise especially with the french baguettes, you have to knead for a while. I was doing the kneading part at night so I would vent and sleep better. It's like the exercise where you ripe paper to vent except I knead doe. Then we get that added benefit, fresh organic bread, ahhhhhhhhh !!!!!! I added an album you can see my bread and Babies !! I see you wear the cannula under the mask, How heavy is the Helios ? Can you were it like that out? Attached to your waist? Tell me more !!!!!!!! God Bless !!!!! dragonflymcs Mayleen 02/07 ILD / MCS/ Fibro/ RADS/ TMJD/ AR +18 Cannula Bling I decided that I was tired of wearing this boring cannula. It needed some decoration, so while at Walmart I bought some stick-on rhinestones, and various other "bling." Sunday I wore some blue rhinestones before each ear, and another flower on the hanging down part of the cannula. I also put some flowers on my Marathon liquid oxygen. No one commented!! They probably think I'm crazy.I'm thinking of making a decorated covering for my inside liquid oxygen also. I'm tired of looking at it sitting there reminding me all the time of my condition! Anyone else with more ideas on how to deal with this terrible disease? I'm am getting slowly better after pneumonia, but not fast enough for me.Sherry , Age 64NSIP '98, Bronchiectasis '99PBC '99 No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Mayleen,.I like the lacy mask...do you have a site for it? In regard to the Helios..it depends on what I'm doing. I wear it on my waist if i need both hands .. I sling it over my shoulder for a short walk into a store or I wear it cross body for a longer walk. It allows me to be sort of me so i don't care what anyone says I just weart it! I hate the puffy noises but I'm still out of the house. My husband Mike is the bread baker...his sour dough bread is so good...in fact too good. We've decided that if he makes bread he has to make small rolls instead of loaves .. We were just devouring the entire loaf each time...much too much. So, we freeze the extreas and bring them out 2 at a time. I just know that the house smells so good while he's baking.

First I put the Helios on a belt around my waist. Then I put the cannula on, then the mask, then my glasses!!!! And then my apron to try to keep the messy clay off my clothes. I'm basically a mud-person, clay, gardening just as much fun.They are much harder to do now , I do less, spend less time each session but I get to be dirty!!! It's a miracle I can function at all. But I love the clay work too much not to do the process . I cannot afford to get irritated..just so I don't start coughing. The clay itself especially when wet isn't a big problem. The dry and fired clay and the dust and then the glazes are the real trouble. I have to get new filters for the particulates and the vapors before class restarts in September.

So I had to soak this in baking soda for days to off-gas any residues from it. Then I disinfected it in GSE for a couple of days. I did not react to it today thank God!!! I have now a North 7700 silicone, thank God I did not have a problem with it. So, like I said people run. Someone asked me if I was going to Mars. this is what it looks like: More like this one My cartridges are larger because I need both particle filtration and multi-gas cartridges. I need to get the full face next. I know I have a problem with my eyes absorbing as well. At last I can breathe better. Even if I look like I am going to Mars. Tell me some more how you hook up the Helios to the masks. Can I go out hooked up like that or am I trapped in doors? I found a website with the tygon cannula. So, I guess they have those.. I have the tygon tubing my sister just sent, but no cannula. Can I hook the tubing straight to the masks from the helios? Can you tell me more please? This one can be used with a compact par system which suuplies air you attach the system to your waist. However since I have a ILS as well is why I am having trouble understanding how to do all this. It is not the same to get air and oxygen right?

It's rather interesting to put one on,( it's really hot underneath) adjust the cannula from the Helios that I put around my waist and then put my glasses on too. Working on the potters wheel has been a challenge at best. I've decided that hand building is less complicated at least I don't have to try to stay upright on the seat of the potters wheel ..

Everyone runs from me like a hve a disease. Oh I do. Ha Ha but it is not contagious so why are they running??? Last masks I got it has a flower. Now they say that's a pretty mask, and then the others still run for their lives.. Once this man said to his son, Watch get out of the way of the crazy lady!!! I told him that;s right you better move. People are just rude, cruel. They do not think of us or how we feel. However when someone does stop and ask me what is wrong I give them information they can use. On the run of course. This only happens when I do groceries other than that I cannot go anywhere really because my masks are in adequate. I need to upgrade to real crazy lady style. Like the kind here: Let's see what they say now!! I think I will wear a poster to go with it.
