After 2 years of Shane not being able to stay asleep every night and energy and life declining. Then a 6 month stretch of continuous colds, chest colds sinus infections so much coughing and so much Kleenex. I as a his wife was fed up. Fed up with not having my husband. Fed up with the sickness and always being sick. There was a point that so much coughing throughout a rib and excruciating pain caused him to miss several days of work. Then the last cold which seemed more like a bronchial infection caused him to not sleep and caused him to miss more work and it was finally enough.  I finally made a doctors appointment and told him we were going. Being new patients it took 3 weeks to get in, things did not get better. On June 28th 2017  we got into the doctor,  she immediately could recognize that he was sick.
