is a lot like my COPD. I wouldn't, couldn't, won't wish that on anyone anytime. It sucks not being able to breath, knowing full well I'll die from suffocation.

Oh how I wish I had overs or would have died long ago before this set in.

Death doesn't scare me in the least but suffocating does. I'm non religious so I have no illusions of an after life

Stupid miners that voted for this cretin, My apologies to the stupid miners for telling it as I see it.
