Title: Does anyone have an asthma machine they don't need to use anymore?
Post by: MissaFX on September 11, 2008, 06:54:39 AM

Hey guys, just minutes ago my asthma machine blew some part inside.  I decided to open it up right away, but discovered it is mostly glued together.  As you all know I do not have health insurance and that comming up with one could be difficult.  A lot of people get these machines for one lung infection or something and hardly if ever use them again, so I just thought I would see if anyone had one they would be willing to part with for the cost of shipping and I'd be willing to buy you a game or something in its place.

I also do not have inhalers, so I gotta feel my fingers out in every direction I can to get a way to breath easly again soon.  Sorry to bother you guys with this.

Shipping and a game might come close to equallying the price of this auction item:

I need one of the non portable models which sits on a table.  They are usually about 12 inches by 12 inches, height can vary.  The portable ones burn out too fast if you use them daily like I have to.

That ebay one is a portable unit.
