BREATHE is a memoir of sorts. It's a compilation of personal diaries over a period of several years that contains invaluable insights into living with the effects of COPD. More importantly, it contains techniques and insights that helped one man live comfortably with the disease, overcoming aspects of it and learning to deal with other aspects. If you need to understand life with COPD, whether as one who has been diagnosed or as a caregiver, this is an invaluable glimpse into an often misunderstood universe.
