JoAnn has promised me she will return to the DS Emphysema board. As she has before. I myself, need her humor and wisdom to help me through my days and I know there are others. If you're one of them, please leave your encouragement so she understands that there are "good" people on this board. Besides the "few" on here for all the "wrong" reasons!

" BreatheEasy:
I had just joined , when you left, but have read many of your comments and some of your posts and the humor and wisdom will be greatly welcomed again. Please do not let the "losers" and "idiots" get to you, they are not worth it. So as they say on the "Price Is Right", "Come On Down" and WELCOME BACK !!! Wes "

" I promised Jeff I would come back. Here I am. I do not know what to say. You all are awesome and make me feel like the world is a pretty good place to be and has some awfully nice people in it. YOu have all been such good friends to me. Thank you so much. I am on the Fentanyl and Hydrocodone still and as a result sleep a great deal. (But,I am painfree and that is well worth the trade off.) I will try to be more active...in between naps. (~smile~)
Hugs to you all! JoAnn "
