Thanks Steff...and thanks for asking. She came out of hospital on Tuesday but feels weak at times. Been diagnosed with COPD but didn't realise the significance, thought that she would be skipping down the road...time will tell (I suppose that it is the result of 40+ years smoking !).
Hopefully the latter with the correct drugs. She will be seeing her consultant in a few months time for tests and hopefully get a few answers to the questions that she didn't ask (or didn't want to ask) the first time around.
