Guest guest Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Wally, Thanks for sharing that article with us....it is discouraging isn't it? This disease is on the increase folks. Disease incidence is up as are the death rates. None of it is good news especially when you consider how little attention this disease gets. We all need to talk about this disease...to anyone and everyone who will listen. People need to at least have heard of this illness!

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 I know, we all hate this disease...makes me remember that L was given "hours" and that has been some time ago. I'm sure Kathie in WA will let us know when she transitions. MamaSher, age 70. IPF 3-06, OR. NasturtiumsDon't fret about tomorrow, God is already there!

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Wally, Well, we made a national publication!!!Now if people only read!!!! The problem lies with the fact that fewer and fewer people even read magazines at all. How is the public and the medical profession going to realize that PF is really a HUGE deal? I'm wondering how many actually this very good publication? Thanks for sending this along. Hope your week is a great one.
