Sweet Sixteen

I got word from my friends at Johns Hopkins that I need to spend 16 hours a day hooked up to my breathing machine. This comes in response to a breathing test I took at my local hospital on Tuesday.

My lungs cant hold more than 2.5 liters, and perform at 42% of what they should.

  3. C.S. Lewis said, "Courage is not simply one of the virtues but the form of every virtue at its testing point." That is how I see you: facing each new hurdle with such courage and guts. I salute you, Tony! And on the lighter side, at least there's a machine to help supplement when you only have 42% of your lung capacity. They say we only use10% of our brains; well, I only have 42 %of that 10% of usable brain power left, and they don't make a machine for that...
