   <p>I wish the world would understand that when you can&apos;t breathe nothing else matters. I will be struggling to catch my breath and people continue to talk to me about everything and anything, asking me questions about what I think about something in the news, etc. I&apos;m on oxygen 24/7 and people still don&apos;t &quot;get it&quot; that I can&apos;t breathe sometimes and need time to catch my breath. They will continue to walk quickly and chatter on about everything under the sun. Instead of &quot;Do you need a minute? I&apos;ll wait.&quot; they just go right on as if someone isn&apos;t struggling to stay alive right in front of them.</p>

   <p>Walking into a business or home with air fresheners going takes my breath away. I have to leave immediately.</p>
