I didn't know this but our lungs are not the same size. The life- sustaining oxygen that our body takes in is all- important to our life. The lung on the right side is larger, with the one on the left being smaller and given the extra space needed for the heart. Though each lung has an upper and lower lobe the right actually has three. Interesting, huh?

Makes sense that the lung closest to the heart would be a bit smaller.

I knew none of that... the last thing that I remember is the fact that we shouldn't be sleeping under feather duvets... we are inhaling feathers of something?? Guess what I pulled off the bed last night!!

My niece is a lung doctor. While she was in medical school, she became very ill with lung infections and missed a whole semester of school. That's when she decided on her specialty. And it has served her very well in her life's work.
