First, thanks for calling me young one since you don't know how old I am. haha

I've been battling a lung disease for the past 2 years and just finished taking steroids for 7 months. I'm telling you steroids make people act very ugly. If you ever run up against someone on steroids and battling a lung disease, you will meet your match in the arguing. I guess it would end when you blow a big puff of nasty smoke in their face. They would not be able to breathe at all.

I believe the issue could be the effects on the other old people and how many old people die of pneumonia every year. That was one of the first symptoms that I kept coming down with before they figured out that my rheumatoid arthritis was attacking my lungs. I can smell smoke coming through my car's air conditioner when the person in front of me is smoking at a stop light with their window open. The first time that happened, I was trying to figure out where the smell was coming from and now I just turn it to recirculate at all stop lights.

I'm also wondering why no one has mentioned that if the daughter feels so strongly, maybe she should take care of her mother at home.

Listen ignorant one, I NEVER blow smoke in ANYone's face.  You sure are one piece of work.  You have a terrible attitude problem!

 "I can smell smoke coming through my car's air conditioner" ... you sure have one hellava blood hound nose there. hehe

Listen, I am sorry for your troubles, although I have no proof, just your word.  But if life on the outside of your house is so hard on you, maybe you should just enjoy the comforts of your home.

How about daughters who work and do not have the CARE facilities at home for their "moms?"  At least "MOM" has care 24/7 in the nursing home! heh!

Listen, it's horrible when someone develops a terrible disease, but to want to change the world to accomodate them is just wrong. The world does NOT rotate on anyone's butt!

Double amputees feel phantom pain in their missing limbs just as strongly as if the limbs remained.
