Hello my name is James. I started to work early in life and I try to enjoy it. Meaning, I liked to work and enjoyed all the many jobs I could do. By the time I was 17 I was installing air conditioners in attics all over South Florida. For 12 years, I was breathing in bacteria and fiberglass. By the time I was 30 I already had global strokes and respiratory failure. I survived. My breathing since then has gotten progressively worse my oxygen saturation is low.
