World COPD Day 2014

This year I am teaming up with Concentric's #daretostair campaign to raise awareness! 

I hope that you will all join me to help raise awareness! 

COPD sucks, so little research is being done! 

We need to FIGHT and make more people aware of this very misunderstood illness. 

Share with your friends, family, and dare them to take the stairs November 19th! 

Ask them to share videos or photos on social media sites documenting their stair climb using the hashtag 

#daretostair

Let's help others understand what COPD is like.









Could you have COPD?

With increased funding, death rates DROP!!!!

We MUST raise awareness to help ourselves, and our loved ones! 

I cannot do this alone, I need you to join me.

There are apps to help you manage and take your medications on time, remind you to refill them, and keep a log of all of this to take to the Dr.  office . The most comprehensive app I have found for this is the MediSafe Meds and Pill Reminder. I love it! The apps listed here are not COPD specific. They can be used for many...

Recommended blogs.

These blogs are great! For some, like myself, I love to read! I love to learn about everything! Especially, reading to learn about how to cope with my chronic illness! Hearing the stories others share on their blogs and websites is inspiring to say the least. Here is a list of the blogs and websites I read and recommend to others. COPD is such a complex illness. Everyone has a different experience, and for some, it is just one of many illnesses we must cope with. So, I do not discriminate. These blogs cover a everything. Not all are specifically COPD  related . But, they are about life ,  hope, and healing.
