Ronnei,
Great to hear you are doing so well and still right on top of every issue that gets in your way. Keep up the good work and enjoy "breathing better and living well".

I think you are doing great and am proud of you for all you have gone through and how well you are doing.
There are really only two requirements when it comes to exercise.
One is that you do it. The other is that you continue to do it.

It doesn't seem possible it has been that long already. I'm very happy that your breathing continues to be so good. You take care.
