I am a 49 year old wife, mother, grandmother. I have been living with Asthma, Emphysema, bronchiectasis and now stage 4 COPD for over 35 years. I am on the waiting list for a double lung transplant at Brigham and Women’s hospital in Boston, Mass. I am living with oxygen now which limits everything I do. I will live on oxygen until I get my transplant, and my COPD is declining a little bit every day. If I don’t get my transplant then COPD will eventually kill me. I pray every day my call will come in. I have known people who didn’t make it for their call. Being short of breath makes it hard to do every day things like house work, playing with my kids when they were little and now my granddaughter. I sit on the side lines and watch everyone else having fun. We have had to stop camping, I can no longer go with the amount of oxygen that I am on. My granddaughter keeps asking me when we can go camping and it breaks my heart. I feel like I am just here, not living, sometimes. It makes me sad to think of everyone else moving on with their life and I am just waiting and waiting. I’m supposed to stay away from sick people, smokers and this is hard to do. I have to stay as active as I can, but how do you stay away from all of that. I feel like I have been fighting like a girl for years and I will keep fighting until I get my transplant and after. I will not give up and I will keep pushing.

(MUST READ: HOW I GOT CURED FROM COPD)
My name is Claudia Kosa I thought i should share this here as someone may need this information; I was diagnosed of COPD in February 2015, my doctor told me it has no permanent cure, i was given inhaler to help relax my airway and other medications to ease the situation, this continued till a friend of mine Anna Burke told me about Dr Ejiro from South Africa who cured her father of COPD and Glaucoma. I contacted this herbal doctor via his email and bought the herbal medicine from him, i received it within 6 days and applied it as prescribed and was totally cured within 19 days of usage. my life is back again! Contact this herbal doctor via his email ejiroherbalcure(at)gmail(dot)com or call/whatsapp +27617403481 (Write the email in the right format)
I recently had a chest x-ray after visiting my doctor because I am regularly experiencing a crushing sensation when I lie down in bed. It feels like my heart is in a vice, this is the best way to describe it. I received my results and was told I had Emphysema. There must be a mistake. I don’t have a cough and I have never smoked in my life, so i was in shock! I am 52 years old. My dad was a smoker. He died when I was 17. He had emphysema with smoking and pneumoconiosis with dust from coal mines. The doctor had mentioned the CT showed my cerebellum was small. Everything went downhill from there I lost my job because I was a liability. around 5 months ago I began to do a lot of research and came across www Health Herbs Clinic com. The treatment is a miracle. I recovered significantly, after using the HERBAL FORMULA I purchased from health herbs clinic. com, Going back to my farm work again gives me so much joy. The shortness of breath, and fatigue all disappeared. I recommend the Emphysema herbal formula for anyone out there with same condition. I was fortunate to have the loving support of my husband and family. I make it a point to appreciate every day!
