My husband has the same thing your dad had...I'm so sorry to hear you lost him.

doortego...I'm sorry about your dad too.

I watch my husband struggle every day...he is now at 18% lung Capacity - which is very very bad. I have to check him every morning to make sure he's still breathing. I already know he won't live long like this - but he's only 57 and it's really hard to accept it.
