Jane M. Martin

Thank you for visiting my Amazon Author page.

I'm Jane M. Martin, a respiratory therapist, educator, and writer with more than 35 years' experience doing my best to help people breathe easier.

As I worked in the hospital my patients asked, "Am I the only one who has this problem? What's going to happen to me? How can anyone possibly understand how I feel?" In response, I started a breathing support group, and then a pulmonary rehabilitation program. Working with these programs helped me see the courage and wisdom of my patients. So, I began to write patients' stories to help those with COPD and other chronic lung diseases who felt discouraged, overwhelmed, and alone.

I'm excited about sharing my book, Live Your Life with COPD - 52 Weeks of Health, Happiness, and Hope (second edition) with you! Whether you're a person who's been diagnosed with COPD, a family member, caregiver, or a health care professional, I know you'll be informed, encouraged, and inspired.
