C.O.P.D. is a non curable illness which is a lung disease and can fatal and can kill you. Not enough awareness or support for suffers of this disease and PIP are denying people help with this illness.

More details

There is no cure for it and it is a Lung disease and can be fatal. There needs to be more help and support for this Illness and people who have this should not be going through PIP assessments or losing their benefits when their isn't a cure for this Illness.
