Hello Everyone,

I'm an ARDS survivor and I spent a week or so on the ventilator and almost 2 weeks in the ICU. I've had the same issues as nearly everyone in this group, which tells me, we're normal people responding to an abnormal situation. This is a great forum for both patients and caregivers. Lots of good resources here that I wish I had in '99.

Hi @plexiclone, welcome to Connect. So glad you found the PICS forum and are willing to share your experiences. Such as apt phrase that you use: "we're normal people responding to an abnormal situation". Do I understand correctly that your ICU was almost 20 years ago? It sounds like you remember well, yet and still.
