Is there any truth in that if you are on ambulatory oxygen or concentrator that you immune from the virus, as it attacks the lung's, well mine are already destroyed through Advanced IPF and I am told I only have a few months anyway.

Take care everyone and stay safe and well

God bless

Ernie

Hi yes I am doing well under the circumstances, by saturation levels are dropping hourly now, used to be weekly then daily.

The drying up of the grass and the sunshine makes a big difference to your feeling of well being. My daughter and son in law came around to cut the grass for us, but had to stay well away from us.

I did manage to get down to the summer house just to sit and read,

But yesterday I did some work on the railway, not as much as I wanted to, but it did tire me out.

I felt better for it although I slept forever, got up at midday.

Thank you for your message.

May God bless you and yours and keep you safe and well.

Ernie

Hi A lot of people have asked the same thing, but I am not very good at all this technology stuff apart from programming my locomotives. However I will give it a try. The locomotives are all American O gauge 3 rail Lionel with Legacy control. (You can Google them)

They do keep me saneπŸ€ͺ😜

Take care and stay safe and well

i'm crossing my fingers you succeed oldspark. i've seen a place for putting a photo on here somewhere, but it's going to take me a while to get up to speed and discover what's actually possible.

nb: i only discovered your reply by accident. i'm sure there must be a way to find responses more easily than sifting through everything.

take care of yourself

Dear Ernie,sadly it is a myth but you keep using as much as you need as it will continue to help your breathing,hoping that you are as comfortable as possible and being very well looked after.

If you don't mind love being offered by a bloke here is it in abundance

Ski's and Scruff's :)

Of course I do not mind, love and hugs do not just belong to different sexes. God our saviour and Jesus Christ are men? They shared there love.

I still hug my son and grand children.(well not now as we only stay in touch by email.)

I know my days are numbered, but I have to keep on going as I have a model railway to finish.

God bless

Ernie
