Sue, I want to thank you on behalf of myself and so many others on this post. Your reminders and explanations about the importance of nebulizing saline and doing airway clearance are invaluable. So many of us did not have that advice when first diagnosed, and it would have shortened our journey through this. Knowing that we have this tool to help ourselves during meds and afterwards, or even without meds, is very empowering and gives us encouragement to do what we ourselves are able to do to manage this and other infections. Yes, it can be time consuming and inconvenient, but the results are well worth it. I encourage everyone to take advantage of this harmless treatment and to keep it up religiously, making sure to “scrupulously” clean your equipment, as Sue has advised.
Thank you Sue. I will start up on it again. I appreciate your advise.
