What do you do

[BaylorCrew07]

During the school year I read/study/do homework, which works out great. However, during the summer I end up skipping a lot of treatments cuz I hate being tied down and not doing anything. I get bored watching TV...but Sudoku has kept me somewhat entertained, as well as occasional video games... what does everyone else do?? I could use some good ideas!

Debra,

I normally browse this forum and the net while I do my treatments.

I internet shop <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> I don't necessarily buy anything - but I do shop <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I chat as well - MySpace, AIM, this board, etc.

How long are your treatments, if I may ask. My grandaughter(3) does them3Xday for about 15 min.--am, noon, late afternoon. Doesn't do them at night, as we leave vest at the babysitters house since it's too heavy (and expensive) to lug back and forth.

Intal + Albuterol = 7 minutes
Pulmozyme = 7 minutes
HTC = 10 minutes
Vest = 30 minutes

I do this twice a day. TID or QID if lungs aren't feeling so hot.

Most of the time I am on the forum,here, during my treatments. I use to watch television or read the newspaper, but the TV had to be quite loud to hear over the vest &/or neb & the newspaper was just too short! When hubby got my laptop for Christmas I started doing my treatments while online. If I am not on the forum I am playing games or chatting on msn/aim. If I am short on time I will fold laundry while doing treatments, but then it seems like double work LOL!

Doing treatments right now!!!!!!!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Also read alot.

 

[BaylorCrew07]

ahh, internet would definitely hold me over! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> I just normally keep my nebs, etc. downstairs and don't lug them up here, but I guess it may be a good idea to just keep them up here instead! Thanks for the ideas

I browse on the internet, I watch TV, or I read.

I tend to...

1) Read
2) Write
3) Draw (although the albuterol makes my hand shaky <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">
4) Surf the net
5) Play video games

I think that's about all you CAN do ^_^

Games, and talk.
Mostly MMORPG's.

I could never really focus on anything I needed to do at the same time as doing treatments. If it wasn't enjoyable, it would irritate the hell outta me.

Well I watch tv or listen to my mp3 player. My neb machine and vest are in the bedroom. Sometimes I will move the neb machine in the computer room to get on the computer,, but since we sold our tv in the bedroom I ll drag it into the front room, I find it harder for me to do my vest now since there isn't a t.v. in there. We are going to buy another t.v. that is a lot better than the one we sold. The other one was OLD.
