Sorry mods, I didn't know where to put this thread, so I put it in MA where I am from.
I have just been diagnosed with COPD (I'm 42) and am having a tough time coping with the news.
I have a 2 year old son and another child on the way. I'm heartbroken that I may not be around to see them grow. I smoked for 20 years but quit 3 years ago when I found out my wife was pregnant.
If any of you are living with this and can offer any hope I would appreciate it greatly. I have been drinking a lot as a means if coping until I can deal with it.
I know that people live for many years with this disease, and I am in the early stages still. I just pray for another 20 years to see my children grow.
To those that suffer from it I ask:
How do you cope with it mentally?
How is your quality if life?
How long have you been living with it?
Any prayers would be appreciated also. Thanks too all who respond.
