Crystal R., NV

Unfortunately, lung disease is no stranger to our family. My grandfather was a musical legend. At least, our family believed so. He played any and every instrument from violin and guitar, to his most known specialty, the piano. Playing in a band in his prime, he spent many nights playing in smoke filled clubs. He was diagnosed with having an air pocket on one of his lungs. Surgery left him with half a lung and an awesome scar. The doctors gave him only a few years, but he surpassed their expectations by almost 30 years! Not until five years prior to his passing in 2010 was he put on oxygen 24 hours a day. My grandpa was the smartest man I know and the most talented pianist. He entertained family and friends at every gathering and played the organ at church.
