In early 2011 Barbara Lott of Baton Rouge, LA was getting
very frustrated with her oxygen tanks. Even though she primarily used them at
night, she was too nervous to travel anywhere far from home. She was unable to
visit friends, family, and even her son who only lives a few hours north. Then
one day she saw a commercial for Open-Aire and decided that a portable oxygen
concentrator could be the answer to her problems.
At first her doctor was hesitant to give her a new
prescription. Her doctor wasn’t familiar with portable oxygen concentrators and
didn’t know if it would be right for Barbara’s needs. But Barbara was insistent.
She provided paperwork and information from Open-Aire, and eventually the doctor
was convinced to give the portable oxygen concentrator a try. After a few months
of seeing how well it performed for Barbara, she became a believer. “Now my
doctor recommends it to all of her patients who don’t want to sit at home with
their tanks,” says Barbara. And Barbara isn’t sitting at home with her tanks
anymore either. She’s able to go where she likes, and is making plans to visit
her son again very soon.
