Today is the beginning of my 26th year with it and I still feel good I do get a little breathless at times i do my own therapy several times a day and it works wonders I also walk a lot which helps as well it will catch me up one day but until that time comes I'm doing everything I've always done not giving up yet I'm 72 thin and loads of energy sometimes I wish I could slow down but too hyper active.

Hi, thanks for sharing this. It's encouraging to hear. Can you let us know what therapy you do at home? I know that walking is a helpful thing but would like to learn more. I'm happy for you. That'amazing. God bless you, Terri
