less lung lock

This post finishes "lung lock"

Ventolin does no good at all. So... *not* asthma.

Extra blankets on chest -- does help. Tho I eventually wake up sweating -- and still unable to breathe fully. But lungs work well enough for me to sleep.

Which I would, except: I have an idea.

This is a known problem. Same problem that makes it difficult to bend over, to tie up shoelaces etc. All one problem?

I'm too fat.

The internal organs in my abdomen have grown. They fill the abdomen -- and push my lungs up towards my shoulders.

Lungs cannot take a deep breath -- because there is no room to expand.

Bloody awful... but seems to fit the facts :-(

With cancer I am supposed to lose appetite. Become gaunt.

Instead... I glance in the mirror and see... Jabba the Hut :-(

Oh well, no complaints about the food at this facility :-(

The last couple of hours' sleep were very restful, I wake up feeling full of get up and go

... until I start walking.

 Still slow and a little unsteady.

I wonder if I dare step outside to look for the paper? Or is that too risky?

More good news:

I am fit enough to make myself a fresh cup of hot tea :-)

Each day, a new excitement !
