Welcome Greg! Please feel free to jump in anywhere anytime on any topic. You'll find the water warm. Some folks check in daily at the Fence- it's open all the time... (come pop in and have a coffee with us), or If there's a general interest item or COPD related issue you want to comment on, share or ask questions, by all means ask away. Or start a thread on a topic of interest or concern to you. Whatever YOU are comfortable with. Don't worry about posting in the wrong area or anything; that's why we have great Admins who can move things or copy etc There's a fair bit of information here and folks are pretty friendly and quite diversified when it comes to COPD; if they don't know something they'll point you in the right direction at the very least.I guarantee you'll be made to feel at home right away! If you've not yet joined our parent organization/ COPD Canada Patient Network, www.copdcanada.ca/sign_up.htm Please consider it. It's open to e'one internationally and it's Free. Membership has it's benefits! There's a lot we can learn and share together ... I hope in time you'll think of us here as a 2nd family. So; make yourself at home and get comfy! My name's Jackie, aka Blossom. I look forward to getting to know you! |

Thanks for the welcome folks! I was diagnosed with COPD in Nov 2004 but only found this site recently. So far, I'm managing not too bad. My main problem is trying to remind myself that I can't do a lot of the things I used to! (after all I'm not exactly a "young fella")  Greg |

Well Greg..... my hubby reminds me sometimes (particularly if I'm "down" or frustrated when I can't do something) that I should be concentrating on the things I CAN do rather than the things I can't.  |
