Short Bio

I was diagnosed a few weeks ago that I have IPF. I never heard about this disease in my entire life. I am petrified for myself but more for my babies and little sister. There are no support groups near me. The closest is Portland 4+ hours away. A couple of people have reached out to me from IPF world and I appreciate them so much. I go on May 24 to Pulmonologist and then I will learn more
