Bob: You want me to attend the pulmonary rehab program? Do you have any idea how difficult it is for me to leave my apartment, with my breathing problems?
Bob: I know I get worse every time I have an attack and am hospitalized. But what do you expect me to do? I am doing my best. I come to these appointments don’t I?
There is no way I can go to this program.
Bob: I googled some information and I have some strategies I can use to help me get better. I’m going to walk around my apartment and try to get a bit more active. I even have a step counter.
