Prayers for you.

Any hope for a transplant?

Thanks for the prayers. No transplant. Too old at 72 and too costly.

You must not have much exposure to death. There is a vast spectrum in the death experience varying from dying peacefully in your sleep, to struggling for days and finally succumbing to pain or exhaustion.

I am a cancer survivor, personally I am hoping for a nice quick heart attack or a semi crossing the median.

BTW, COPD death is a long slow suffocation, if you are lucky, your CO2 levels go up enough to make you unconscious.

So the real story here is: Man makes his living selling cigarettes by smoking them in commercials, and dies pretty much exactly when he was supposed to.

This is the problem with the science on smoking - How can people smoke for more than 40 years and yet still die pretty much at life expectancy?
