Hi Mike,

Welcome to the group. Yes, this is what stinks about this horrible disease..noone seems to know exactly why, when, how, where...the research continue's. But it seems that by the time we r diagnosed-via near death experience's/shock/vats-lung biopsy-the Dr.'s give us the doom & gloom as to the longevity or our lives. Anyway, we sure do need AWARENESS so anything you can do would be greatly appreciated! We are onboard! Hope we can you with any concerns, thoughts, problems, questions..what have you!

Hello I was told I had PF two weeks ago and I thought it was COPD for over 6 Months. I want to help to make Public Awareness because so many people do not know what it is. I have read the post for about a week and a half. I did not sleep for nearly a week. Now I want to get a group for funding to make awareness. I want all to know that My Prayer's are with you. My family Doctor's Receptionist and My Pulmonary Doctor's Receptionist did not know what it is. Most of My Family and Friends have not heard of it. My second Cuz is in her first year of residency at UAB in Biringham and she is helping me with research of it. I have some contacts in Birmingham and Huntsville Al. that are interested in helping. Fox News 6 in Bham and CBS 19 in Huntsville.All are in my Prayer'sMIKE BLAZERmike.blazer@
