What a scary trauma for your body to continue to experience. Holding you and your lovely body and lungs in lots of healing light. That trauma response sucks on top of the experience. Wishing you more easy breath and lots of love.

I know the scary feeling if your breathing being compromised (allergy induced asthma for me) and how it shapes the potential of how you engage with life. I really enjoyed your blog and the perspective through the eyes on your garden.

I kinda know what you’re going thru. Thirty six years ago I went thru something with my lungs that has never been diagnosed. Between Dec 1st of 1989-Mar 19th of 1990 I was in and out of the hospital for a total of 10 weeks. Given the last rites 3 different times. Insurance wouldn’t let me stay in the hospital long enough to figure things out. I have the same pc dr as back then. He had just taken over Dr Fitzpatrick’s practice. He still calls me his miracle patient. He now thinks I had an allergic reaction to bactrim, which is sulfa which can affect. So after this long and drawn text, I have very weak lungs. I don’t have asthma like you, but I have to be very careful just like you do. So sending lots of hugs and prayers your way. ❤️🙏

Jen - I had no idea this was a part of your life, your earthly existence. This is my first time on substack. Glad to be here. I may join you. Much to discuss.
