Guest guest Posted June 18, 2002 Report Share Posted June 18, 2002 , Deborah does the same thing.. and yes, you must try to stay with her pace. quite often, I forget and the next thing I know. Wow, she is left behind and it scares me.. She too has breathing problems.. I had the Doctor give is a RX for Ox and boy, did it help. If for some reason she forgets to use it the night before, I can tell the differance that day.. I try to have her use it when we go to bed every night. Not during the day unless she takes a nap.. You might try this because it sure helped Deborah...
