Good morning to all of my dear friends here! Wow, you are all such a breath of fresh air! Thank you so much! DH's breathing is better thanks to the new added items---and I will try not to let any of it stress me---
I hope all of you are doing well and the others that visit here but don't post are well too!
That's good news! It'll be a little more work for you ( not that you don't have enough of that already, or anything), but when you see the results of that work are positive ( like improved breathing), somehow it won't seem like so much.....
Was it Elston's analogy about the baby bottle sterilizing/washing? Hit the nail on the head as far as getting used to new tasks and how much easier they get with time.
DH is still feeling pretty good but I insisted he use the nebulizer this morning---the reason he is feeling better is because of all the different things--right? He said it made him a little dizzy but I think he has to relax and not hyperventilate when he does it---just will take some time I suppose. I have DH's step daughter coming next week and all of this new "stuff" to do but I'm going to take it all one day at a time....no matter..tomorrow will still come right? Doesn't mean it doesn't cause me stress but I'm working on that! I'm just happy DH's breathing is better and my cats haven't had any unwelcome visitors....that rests heavy on my mind too. We have several stops to make when we go to town today---I so don't enjoy doing that anymore but we do need to eat and so do my critters.....I just do not like going anywhere anymore. I am so afraid of DH catching this flu or a cold..or even me...Oh no am I getting paranoid too? No matter, we will do what is necessary and get home ASAP.
cyn tell DH to keep using the nebulizer the dizziness will subside after he starts using it on a regular basis. If it doesn't after 2-3 weeks then they need to change the med or dosage.
Cyn the nebulizer will make you a little dizzy and shaky at first. Sometimes for about three hours and then it is time for the next treatment but as long as you know that and the reason you guys should be okay.
It may even make him a bit cold. I know mine makes me cold for some reason. Hope that helps
I did list a few more items online today, got the new medical equipment up and working---cleaned just a bit on the house, and even took a second to let my critters know I still love them...sigh...they are the ones that don't get much attention anymore. But we do what we have to do and hopefully they will adjust too. I feel like I live in a merry-go-round right now. I will adjust. I get a little irritated with DH when he "suggests" that there is something more I need to do....I do it...but I am only one and eventually he is going to have to understand that. Or maybe that "Wonder woman" will return--ha!

Nice pic Elston, that said it all. I hope you find strength cyn from everyone here and provide you with an extra boost when your really feeling the pain, emotionally and physically. In the face of darkness i wish you
some light, some warmth, some peace...
A good night to you and your DH friend.
That is a very nice post, brienzi. Could not have said it better myself.
We also do the nebulizer. We get them as free samples from Felix's lung doctor. He gets samples by the arm load, I guess.

Good morning friends!
Seemed nothing would work last night...sigh..another bad night with the phlegm. It seemed so much better the day before and then it was back with a vengeance last night. DH was even choking while on his breathing machine and that never happens. I hope today he wakes up feeling much better. It's really scary.
