Did you know that 1 in 7 adults over age 65 lives with a chronic lung condition? 🌍
Today, September 25, we recognize World Lung Day — a reminder that lung health is senior health.
Many older adults quietly live with COPD, chronic bronchitis, or the long-term effects of COVID.
These challenges don’t always show on the surface, which is why asking simple, caring questions makes such a difference. 🌿
💡 Try asking your loved one: “Do you ever feel short of breath when you walk around the house?” That one conversation can open the door to better care and early support.
Breathing well means living well, because while Alzheimer’s and dementia may affect memory, lung health deeply impacts independence.
As families, we can make life safer by creating healthy environments, asking gentle questions, and encouraging regular check-ups.
Every breath matters, and no one should struggle alone 💛
