    For all the anti vaccine folks out there. Take a look at what people were and are still up against with some of these dreaded diseases.

    I wonder would he be fit to change to a respirator? Would probably give him even more freedom...No?

    God is faithful...I believe he can restore his lungs or gives him new lungs..he is the creator how is he not able to replace what he created?...the Problem is that we get so educated in worldly knowledge and dont search heavenly knowledge...may God deliver him from this cage.
