Question:

My mom has end stage COPD needs oxygen any time she ambulates. Can people post links to backpacks and bags that work for them to carry their concentrators around? She is little now and only weighs 112lbs.

She has lost 48 lbs in the last two years. I don’t know how soon she will be bedridden but I know she does almost nothing now. Can anyone say how long their parents have been able to live at home and when they’ve gotten hospice?
