I was in a little discussion group and I brought up that particular little concept -- it got a few chuckles and a number of OOOoohhh GROSS!! comments... That was 5 or 6 months before I got my new lungs and the little "discussion group" was our lung transplant support group... Looking back on things -- it wasn't that bad really... My lung capacity was 10% of expected for a few years before I got my beautiful new lungs... Some of my last pulmonary function tests said it's at around 110% of expected now! In the grand scheme of things -- it's worth hocking up a few of someone else' loogies... Thanks for the laugh... some of my story, and a tribute to the precious girl whose lungs I breathe with is at www.ClimbingForKari.org Take care!
