No, it's not oxygen, it's medication: albuterol sulfate. As a matter of
fact, I'm using it now. But, she doesn't feel like she should have to
smoke outside. After all, "it's her house".

The other problem is that there's a virus going around (which I've had,
of course) that causes a lot of chest congestion. So, imagine what
that's like for a person with asthma. I finished the antibiotic, but
I've still got the coughing and the chest congestion. As a matter
of fact, a friend of my mother's said that her husband had the
exact same thing...for a month!

I'm not looking forward to this.
