Does anyone know what exactly is ment by finding the cure for COPD? It can't be bringing back missing or broken parts of your lungs. If you quit smoking or never smoked, eat and go with the right diet, do all your meds as prescribed, use your oxygen 24-7 and exercise regularly is that just slowing it down? You can't stop old age so it's going to get worse anyway. So I guess the cure is to stop it, but what are you trying to stop. I don't get it. The more I read the more I get confused. Is there a simple answer that one of you people may know. Thanks if you do
