U are doing GREAT, Alexa! One reason for your shortness of breath is hidden right there in your own words...." I started to feel better while writing this post." Seems to me stress is a factor here........DUH! Keeping busy...........mentally and physically are great coaping skills we can all learn. Reading, listening to music, TV do not do it for me............gardening, running, baby sitting, cleaning ( the kind of cleaning U do once a year ...really digging in to it!) anything that might challenge U physically..........lifting weights, go bowling ( nothing like a bowling alley to exhaust the senses and the body!) get involved in nature get up at sunrise and see " the dawn break", sunset on the lake........anything to renew your faith in LIFE and living.....a whole big wonderful world we have all been missing all these years stuck within a big cloud of smoke.......is beneficial for your body and mind. The smoke has cleared, Alexa...........look out .........between us and the horizon there are wonders everywhere U look. We can see clearly now , the clouds are gone.............the obstacles come and go, wax and wane......this is life.....deal with it! U are strong! U have friends.........have faith! Meet the obstacles with new coping skills , new ways to manage the troubles life slings our way! Cherish Life. Cheers, Pat
