Since that time, we have conducted over 65,000 exercise sessions.

Our programs are offered to any person with acute or chronic pulmonary diseases including but not limited to:
Asthma, Emphysema, Chronic Bronchitis, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Bronchiectasis, Interstitial Lung Diseases, Pulmonary Fibrosis, Sarcoidosis, Pulmonary Hypertension, Cystic Fibrosis, NTM, Scleroderma and Pre- and Post-Surgical Care. MoreLess
My goal with "Rare Tumor" community (diagnosis: low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm) is to educate people through my experiences, challenges, and recovery from a tumor diagnosis in my cecum and appendix during a colonoscopy procedure. Interesting moments here in the hospital at Mt. Sinai that I'll look to capture include review of family history, treatment, pain management, recovery path, receiving the diagnosis, taking the prognosis home, and my feelings and concerns all along the way. You'll note from my photo that I also intend on adding as much comedy and creativity as possible. To me that's a staple in any community on or offline.
