Lujlaq and the Himalayas
We've been on a little trek this afternoon to a nearby village. Although the downhill terrain is harsh on your knees the uphill and the fight against shortness of breath is comparably difficult. Speaking of shortness of breath current results of O2 sat's = 94%, HR = approx 60, FVC 98%, FEV 99% at 2,843m. Not bad!!! Everyone else is good too, Barry is exceptional with around 130% for both FVC and FEV, O2 sat is 90 however.
Met a couple who have just returned from base camp there from Carlisle! Knew I recognized the accent : )
Tomorrow we begin our first ascent, about 5 mile hike not sure were... but its actually 100m descent overall.
Himalayas are breath taking... and were at the foot of them!
Love to all
Jodie, Stephen, Guy, Barry

Great job to all of you! I'm new to your blogs so I'm trying to figure out how all of you are (related)friends? relatives? Anyway, I posted comments on Jody's blog and I'll ask you too, if you mind that I talk about you on mine and send reader's to your blogs?
We all want awareness for cystic fibrosis and this is such a brave thing you're all doing!
Thank you,

Hi,
It's all starting to sound a bit scary in an exciting kind of way! Please forgive my ignorance but what if "FEV" and "FVC"?
Stay Safe
