Today is officially the first day of Global PF awareness month so the teddy bear is in full Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis finery now, ready to go into work in the morning...
The APF logo is meant to represent the scarring in the lungs, which looks a bit like 'honeycomb' on a scan.
We have also, as a team, agreed to take the 'Ice Bucket Challenge' for the charity... it will take our breath away for just a few moments, some of the people living with this condition struggle for breath all the time.
We have a just giving page at www.justgiving.com/teams/RespNurses and I hope we will be able to make some contribution to this cause.
I'll let you know what the bear ends up being named! And I may even post a pic or two of the cold water shower...
