Hugs to you all--MIL passed away with Meth.. Thought she had a cold
(for yrs) coughed alot. Once the bad pain started it seemed it was in
her back but felt like it was all over from her waist up. He probably
should see a pulmonologist if he isnt already. I grew up around Libby
Montana if that tells you anything. Scarry!!
