Short Bio

My pulmonary fibrosis is from radiation scarring in 2005.  It has become worse due to pneumonia that required hospitalization, the last time for over 7 weeks.
The radiation scarring was caused by rad treatments I received for a diagnosis of Esophageal Cancer, and post esophagectomy/gastric pull up. Contrary to belief it is not the same as gastric bypass surgery.
