We had some great news this week. After all the testing, the specialist in Kingston said I don't have emphysema, but I do have adult onset asthma. Considering I smoked for 47 years, I'm very lucky to have ended up with a very treatable condition. In fact the doctor asked if I would be interested in joining a study they have planned of long time smokers like myself who beat the odds of developing a serious lung condition.
I really have to chuckle to myself though. Here I have what I thought was a young person's disease, asthma, and an old person's disease, dementia. Go figure eh?
