Switching Oxygen Companies

Recently mom ended up in the hospital with pneumonia. Since then, she has had numerous breathing problems emerge that she is not used to dealing with. It takes a lot now to calm her down so she just relax and breathe and not freak out. We also decided it was time to try to get another condenser to allow her more oxygen flow. Before going into the hospital she was on 5- now she requires 10. In order to get that, we had to call a different company b/c the current company she is using only has one machine that goes up to 10 and another patient is using it. We called another company, who had the machine available, but only delivers the cylinders of oxygen (for portable use) once a month. And they can only deliver 15 per month. So... unless we can keep both companies for the duration, we are going to have a situation. Why do they have to make it so difficult? The woman can't breathe! She needs oxygen! It's that simple! Don't other patients also require oxygen? So many questions, yet no answers. Come on people. What do you think you would do if you couldn't breathe? Just think about not being able to breathe for one second.... just think about it. For her... it's like slowly drowning. And b/c it is fibrosis (scarring)- there is no healing involved. It only gets worse.
