- Short Bio
I am a 73 year old retired manager of a Regions Bank. I have been married to the same man for 54 years. I have one son aged 52, and two grandsons. I had breast cancer in 2001, melanoma in 2002. My health, despite the cancer, was reasonably good until about 5 years ago. I took the pneumonia vaccine, but still had a really bad case of pneumonia. Hospitalized for several days, then 3 months later had it again. Since that time I have had lots of trouble with my lungs. I saw several Pulmonary doctors, but was finally diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis after undergoing a lung biopsy. I am now taking 150 mg of Ofev twice a day.
