| Windy's Lung Foundation WebSite | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| This site is set up and designed for Windy Felsing, in an attempt to learn and share information on the devasting diseases she was recently diagnosised with. Hopefully this will help the readers to further understand the diseases as well as learn how to help or contribute to helping Windy, her family, and so many others who are afflicted with pulmonary diseases. They say information is the key to enlightenment. Well hopefully that is true and this will be a porthole to those wishing to know more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Windy was diagnosed with Interstitial Lung Disease with Pulmonary Fibrosis in September of 2003. Her lungs were not able to fill with air properly and were not able to hold oxygen. Windy was now on 6 liters of oxygen at rest, 7 liters when active, 10 liters with rehab or exercise. After undergoing treatment for this illness, being hospitalized several times and having several surgeries, the doctors have decided that even with their best efforts the medications and treatments are not working. Now Windy has to have a Double Lung Transplant. Due to this disease Windy is unable to work, and is disabled. Windy is now in a remissive stage. Her lungs are getting no better, but getting no worse either. She is now on 4 litres of oxygen while sleeping, 3 litres if/when O2 falls below 90%. Windy is a 40-year old mother of three, and is married to Gary Felsing age 37. Their three sons are: Shad Young 23, Jacob Young 19, and Levi Young 17. They moved to DeWitt in the summer of 2000. They are originally from the Quad Cities, where their families reside. |
