I don't think they'll do it where you're at, but here we have a program
called lung expansion protocol program. Basically they take the portable
ventilator units and issue them to high-level quadriplegics like myself.
Every day I spend 20 to 25 minutes lying in my bed doing lung extension
exercises with the ventilator.

It's really simple. I also utilize two medications to help expand the
Longs, but this can also be achieved using saline.

This has helped me exercise of my lungs and give me a lot more energy to
breath with.
