Bill, first, good luck on getting all the upgrades done at your home. I sure hope it takes care of reducing the trips to the ER. Since I rent, so the most I can do is have air purifiers. Second, you mentioned joining the COPD foundation group. Is that the official name of the group or are you referring to this group at Mayo Clinic? If it's different than Mayo Clinic, can you give me the name of the group so I can check it out? I love this group at Mayo Clinic but I wouldn't mind joining another group as well just to give me additional people to chat with. Thanks, Bill, and I pray everything gets easier for you once the upgrades are finished. Be at peace.
