You've Been Given the Gift of Life, Give it Back!

Welcome friends and family!

Thank you for visiting my blog. It documents my amazing journey from pre to post double lung transplant. I am a 37 year old mother and wife with Cystic Fibrosis who has been more greatly blessed than I could ever imagine possible!

It has been a bumpy ride, but God has given me strength, love, friendship, and, FINALLY, health. My prayers have been answered, my miracle was granted, and I want to share the joy of my new life with you.

If you are a first time visitor, please take a moment to watch The Miracle of Transplantation video below. To me, pictures speak a thousand words.

My entries begin in April of 2008 and my double lung transplant was December 10. Scroll down to my blog archive and you can read from the beginning or jump around. If you are looking for a specific topic, you can use the search engine.

Please feel free to contact me with questions or feedback, I would love to hear from you!

I hope I can help you to experience the love God has for each and every one of us!

May God Bless You with Miracles in Your Life! Nancy

April 9, 2008

Today has been a good day. My parents arrived at the hospital and I am feeling a lot better. My white blood cell count has come down which is an excellent sign that the antibiotics are working. If all goes well, I may be able to be released on home IV antibiotics by Friday or Saturday. They are planning to get all of the tests run for listing prior to my release and we will be able to discuss approximately how long I may have before transplant. Hopefully I will be able to come home, at least for a little while, before we need to come back.
