Thank you for sharing your story. So sorry that you've lost your mother. It's a natural part of the grieving process to second guess, but you did everything humanly possible. There isn't a clear definition of how Hamman Rich develops compared to pneumonia or any similar lung condition and because the symptoms present like bronchitis or pneumonia it is hard for doctors to narrow down until the "traditional" medications don't work.
I'm glad I posted this article, too. It seems this information was needed and I'm glad it has been able to help and provide families with these details.
