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

Decision Made

After some prayer, careful thought, and discussion with my family, I have decided that we will stay in Pittsburgh until Monday, but if there is no change in my status, we will drive home Monday afternoon. I was able to speak with Angel Flight and they do feel they could accommodate me out of the Bradford, PA airport, so that helped my decision greatly.

My coordinator, Paul, will contact me as soon as the other person is transplanted and if, per chance, that happens this weekend, we will stay put. If not, I will at least get a little time at home with Scott and Hannah. who knows, maybe I will even be able to attend the benefit next weekend, wouldn't that be wonderful!

I will let you know if anything changes, but if not, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

All my love! Nancy

Hi Nancy!
So glad that you came to a decision. I think it sounds wonderful. The idea of spending some time at HOME is just what you might need to give you that boost for the home stretch. Will look forward to more updates. Enjoy your weekend as well and we will keep those prayers going. We love you all!

Love,

I think it's a great decision to go home if you still have a considerable wait ahead. The fact that they will be able to fly you to Pitts. if needed is a wonderful thing. You need the love and hugs from Scott and Hannhah. I know you miss them so much.
Love you!
