    COPD Chronic Obstuctive Plumanry Disease

    People normally get it for smoking for 40 years, however i was either born with deformed lungs or damaged was caused when I was on the life support machines when I was a toddler!

    Hi curly. I have COPD. not nice is it :-( my boiler broke down a couple of days ago too.. are we related? lol.

    now, on to the letting agent.. tell them the landlord has to provide you with space heating, wont be as good as having your rads on but at least you can have some kind of plug in heaters just until its mended. And tell them your ill too.
    hugs x

    I am sorted now, had a plumber round yesterday (yes on good friday) who went and picked up a new fan for my boiler.. all working now and a toasty house. I didnt think I would be getting it done until next week though..

    Glad you have some heating curly, just use them when your really cold and wear lots of layers of clothing to keep warm.
