roxlyngcd@comcast.netGetting up earlier is becoming easier, because I am so tired earlier in the evening, and get to bed earlier.This morning we started our walk after a good breakfast at 8:30 AM.My husband had to cut short���just not up to a longer walk, so I pushed on to complete the 3 mile circuit in exactly 60 minutes.I walked with a Spirit 300, on 5 L pulse. Going at 3 mph pace it only kept my sats at 89-92 %. I had to take a nap afterward. When I use a larger high flow tank and keep my oxygen sats around 97% I am NOT tired afterward, rarely if ever have to nap. The higher oxygen satuaration allows me to go even faster, for longer, and recovery more quickly. So, will know to limit my pace to below 2.5 mph when I use small pulse portables, so I don't get exhausted from having sats down below 93%

Genetic Variations Put Youth At Higher Risk For Lifetime Of Tobacco AddictionScienceDaily (July 14, 2008)��� Common genetic variations affecting nicotine receptors in the nervous system can significantly increase the chance that European Americans who begin smoking by age 17 will struggle with lifelong nicotine addiction, according to researchers at the University of Utah and their colleagues at University of Wisconsin-Madison. The study highlights the importance of public health efforts to reduce the number of youth who begin smoking.http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/07/080711081005.htm
Bush to Veto H.R. 6331 TodayContinue to contact your legislators!
President Bush is expected to veto H.R. 6331(the "doc fix") today, which
recently passed overwhelmingly in both the House and the Senate. The bill would stave off the 10.6 physician fee cut, as well as delay the competitive
bidding program and repeal the transfer of title of oxygen. If the
president's veto does occur today, the House could vote to override the veto as early as this afternoon. The Senate will follow shortly after.
Continue to contact your legislators to ask for their support in overriding
the president's veto. U.S. Capitol Switchboard: 202-224-312
