Anyone here with Asthma or other chronic lung disease? You may be interested in this-just FYI
It's hard out there in the cold dry air. I have asthma. I looked for an alternative to the disposable face masks I'd been using for years, because they recently changed materials and got really crappy. I found this online: http://www.breathwarmers.com/
I bought one and I can't say enough good things about it. I don't work for Breathwarmers or own stock in it. LOL I'm just a very satisfied customer. Including shipping it's less than $20.00. Made in U.S.A. too!

As a skier, it sure caught my attention since I don't have to buy new ski pants -- for once, my old ones DIDN'T shrink over the summer! Click on the smiley!

walk to the subway (NYC) and last winter spent a small fortune in cab fare. This winter I've saved a lot of money. In that respect it's paid for itself over and over. I've been able to take a chance and walk there and had no problem. (Although today is definitely a cab day with the -degree wind chill.) I put it on before I button the coat, (very important that it's inside the coat), pull it over my nose and it stays there. I can't say enough good things about it.
