The Republican tax plan is now the law of the land. That means it's time for American taxpayers to brace for some major changes. The new law retains seven income tax brackets but alters the ranges. Personal exemptions have been eliminated, but the standard deduction has increased.

Iâm trying to compare a lung transplant and a lung volume reduction surgery. It looks like a LVRS does not increase life expectancy but does increase quality of life, etc. just like a transplant does. The surgery, while risky, is still not as risky as a lung transplant and of course no problem with rejection.octors donât know how I got it, (non smoker) but Iâm pre transplant right now (not yet put on the list), but they said in about 3 years I may need a bilateral transplant. As you all know the prognosis of this disease isnât good at all; according to the statistics Iâll be dead within 3 â 5 years.
