I've had every Covid vaccine offered. They aren't perfect, but I'm trying to balance risk/benefit. I'm a 70 year old, autoimmune person with lungs that formed scar tissue from my first go-round with Covid, before vaccines were available.
My lung function was great before Covid, it was normal for my age. But post Covid,.my lung function test shows that my lungs function at the level of a 5 year old...and I'm taller and bigger than a 5 year old, so that's a problem.
Scar tissue doesn't "participate" in oxygen/CO2 exchange. So I need to preserve every little alveoli I have. I'd rather die in my sleep with a smile on my face than for gasping for air, so I'll do whatever is offered to preserve the lung function I've kept.
I get mine for people like you and my dad who is in a similar situation.
Dude, THANK YOU. Really and truly, I thank you. You are doing more than my own family does.

It's the very least I can do my friend.
