Short Bio

Retired police officer,  kept going pneumonia six years ago told that I had IPF and that there was some homecoming in a lung and scaring.  Was an avid runner lost left leg because of blood clots, 16 months ago walking 10 to q6 miles a day.  Now lucky if I can do a mile.  No coughing, breathing almost normal, getting very tired, and weak, no energy.
