    I'm all ears my friend. Expect a lot of post-op lung expansion therapy. Best wishes to you.

    Thank you for the offer. I'll likely need it. It's going to be hard being a land manager for nature preserves without being able to hike around the properties!

    The human body is an amazing thing and you'll find out. You may be missing your upper lobe, but you'll adapt and optimize the rest of your lungs and your body will compensate for it. Oxygen exchange happens at the bases of your lungs anyway ;)

    Good to know! I guess that is why they tell you to concentrate on taking breaths and imagine filling your belly instead of your upper chest? I'm sure I'll adapt. It's not the first organ I've lost. lol

    Production Manager for a tool for gathering information on water aquifers.

    So it is somewhat in the environmental industry making me proud to have a (ever so slight) positive effect to the future of this planet.

    But I also have an ex-police Volvo V70 AWD on diesel (not the cleanest on the planet :eek:...)
    And enough solarpanels (not all mounted yet and without any Government subsidies) to offset my entire useage of electricity.

    Guess I'm an enigma...:D
