Thanks everyone for your encouragement - we did go to the Dr. last Friday and she was very upset with Jim that he ignored my requests to go see her. His breathing is horrific! She doesn't know what is causing it, but Jim is taking 4 breathing treatments a day with a nebulizer, plus prednisone and an antibiotic. I thought he was getting better, but he's not - I was just imagining that he was.

I went to the Dr. today as my knee has been killing me - turns out I've torn my meniscus and need surgery. I looked at my Dr. and told her she was crazy - I am Jim's legs and do all the getting up and "fetchin" for him....so am not sure what I'll do at this point....
