Short Bio

Hi, I’m Scott!

My pulmonologist told me that I have IPF.  I went alone to all my appointments, it was very devastating to hear at age 43.

 

That was 11 years ago, today I’m 54, going on 55. For me personally this has been nothing but a nightmare to say the least.

 

Nevertheless, I am here if anyone has any questions or concerns about this horrible disease. Feel free to ask me anything! I hope I can help someone.

 

Most kind regards,

~Scott
