You would be surprised at the number of ppl who have COPD and never even puffed a fag behind the bike sheds. Every time I go to a Hosp the same old prejudice abounds. Always from the Staff rather than patients. Smoking may be the single greatest cause but it never fails to put my back up after all these yes.

Hi ,I hardly ever get out, on a sat with my hub maybe .Its tough and its good to have support I'm feeling a bit depressed this week .I also have chronic obstructive airway disease ,never had a cigarette in my life ,fibro ,leaky gut IBS etc etc .Keep your chin up .xx

I don't drive any more too nervous so I relly on my familly for any outings but I do have a mobility scooter so I can ride around my village. It was a bit difficult at first because of the curbs but I contacted the council and they have lowered them so I can now acess the shop, library etc. I feel as if I have been let out of prison in fact I am probably a hazard to other pavement users He He. keep smiling.
