Pleura

Published on Breathing system.

It belongs to the group of membranes covering the body, of sacs that protect the organs. In this particular case, the pleura protects the lungs. It has the purpose of preventing attacks and ensuring defence. These could be verbal or physical attacks. In this case, we are only referring to attacks perpetrated by people close to us. When talking of the lungs, all types of attack are possible, whether by people close to us or not.

It must be stressed again that what we mean by attack is not something objective. We refer to what the person felt as being a form of attack.
