thanks guys! It's been a bumpy road but still recovering. They removed the left lower lobe and for some reason, my right lung has sprung a leak now. But, removing that diseased left lower lobe has helped my numbers greatly so, hopefully, we keep improving from here on out. Did I read the topic titles correctly and Piper and Jess both got new lungs??!? OO I hope and pray...gonna go check. Thanks for the well wishes and prayers.
