It feels great just to get out of the city. We were in my house for 10 or 11 days under water. The water's contaminated. It smells bad. There's no electricity -- nothing!

We didn't find out until we were on the plane for 20 minutes where we were going. I don't want to just stay sitting around doing nothing. I want to work.

Cigarette smoking is the biggest risk factor for COPD in the United States,

In patients with COPD, even moderate but certainly more severe COPD, each breath is something they have to focus on. They have to understand what they can and can't do within the course of the day, based on their breathing.

I thought it was going to be just like the others: A couple of days, the electricity would go out, and then everything would go back to normal. But it wasn't.

Hate is such a strong word, but love is an even stronger one.
