Dear Lung,

Last year when you decided to get all pneumonia-y on me you didn't give me a single clue that anything was wrong until a large section of you collapsed. You've never been quite right ever since then. So when you started to hurt a little bit on Monday I wasn't too worried. Its happened before but has always gone away. However, this time it didn't go away. I would really prefer not to go through the hell of having you collapse again so I called the doctor. A chest xray was ordered which showed a small spot of pneumonia. So, while having you hurting me is not fun, and IV antibiotics are less than conveinient, I do appreciate the warning this time around. Now, please stop doing this like this from now on.
