worse than I would have predicted. i have thoughts along those lines but pm me if you want to hear them.

Is anyone here a respiratory therapist ? I am wondering if what is used to treat cystic fibrosis patients, at least in the past, would be helpful if no ventilators. I believe they need help breathing because of fluid or sticky stuff in lungs..if they could dislodge it, wouldn't that be better than nothing? Also all I hear about is ventilators...don't they use suction? It seems if you could get rid of the gunk that would help.
