Hey Marketing Department, We’re Not All Over 80!

I have some chronic conditions that apparently medical supply marketers believe only happens to older people. If I look up pulmonary hypertention, I will get photos of grand ma and grand pa with their oxygen tanks, smiling and playing with their grandchildren.

If I look up heart failure, it will be pictures of grand ma and grand pa, smiling, watching their grand children play. They have heart failure after all, and they can't move around you see, so they are just waiting to die.

Come on people. Unfortunately, these diseases span all generations. Don't depress younger people more than they are already to think they they have an old person's disease and the grim reaper is just waiting on the sidelines. Many of us are highly functioning people. Update your stuff.

I maintain two separate blogs. One is LifeAsAnAnomaly.com where I discuss my life with sarcoidosis and the other is AChefTalksFood.blog, where as the name implies, I talk about food.
