Millions of people with respiratory diseases have relied on oxygen equipment, delivered to their homes, to help them breathe.
It's you people dying from nothing that are screwed. I got all sorts of neat gadgets waiting for me...oxygen tent, iron lung.
When I was a teenager, I was in an iron-lung.
I have procured air [oxygen] ... between five and six times as good as the best common air that I have ever met with.
I also have to support my speaking voice by sitting in a way that engages the diaphragm in the way I would for singing.
My dad's dying wish was to have his family around him. I can't help thinking he would have been better off with more oxygen.
If last words are to be audible and coherent, they need to be delivered before you have any tubes up your nose or down your throat. Otherwise, the nurse gets the last word when she says, 'Don't try to talk, honey.'
