Good Morning Everybody

I hope the weekend was relaxing and not too cold and damp for you all.

I notice there has been a few references to sex and having a lung condition on the forum.

Although this is an area that can cause embarrassment for some, for others having a disabling lung condition can lead to a loss of intimacy and a sexual relationship which can be a very important part of a relationship.

The BLF produces a leaflet called ' Sex and Breathlessness' - You can find the leaflet by clicking on the following link:

blf.org.uk/Page/Sex-and-bre...

Alternatively you can call us - 03000 030 555, or e mail us at - helpline@blf.org.uk

Cheers

Jo

No thanks Jo, would rather have a glass of red any time :)

Husband and wife sat together on the sofa, " I love you" she said, "is that you talking or the wine" he replied. "No" she said "it's me talking to the wine" :)

Happy to 'consumer check' the leaflet for the BLF if they can supply a suitable partner .... ;)
