Lung Capacity!

Evidently, lung capacity is important.  Right this minute I can only inhale 1000 ml of air.  I need to get up to 2500 ml of air.  I have a meter that I use to measure my success.

Fluid is taking up the rest of my lung capacity.  The more active and up-right I am the better my chances are of getting this fluid to dry up.

I was so sick after chemo that I could not hold my head up for a week.   Lying down all of the time is what started this mess in my lungs.  This is not pneumonia...I do not have a fever.  However, it could turn into that very quickly.
