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

Wonderful News!

I received word this morning that my friend Julie, from Family House, got her transplant call. It is a day for miracles! Please pray for Julie today as she undergoes this major surgery. Please also pray for Julie's mom, Mary. Bring her peace and hope while awaiting news of Julie's successful transplant. God hears our prayers and is merciful, thank you dear Lord!

The weather looks like it will be beautiful for Music in the Park this evening. I am not sure if I will feel up to attending, but Hannah and my mom will definitely be there.

Dr. Pilewski is planning to re-start the IV antibiotics, so I am awaiting a plan, whether it be to try to start them here today or tomorrow in Pittsburgh. Scott and I will leave tomorrow morning for Pittsburgh and hopefully return home on Friday, unless I need to be hospitalized.

Thank you all for your wonderful prayers! All my love! Nancy

Oh my goodness! I'm so happy for Julie. What an ordeal she has been through. Lots of prayers for her today!

I'm glad you'll be back on the IV's. I know it's a Catch 22 with those things but it will be nice for you to be feeling better again. Good luck with your appointment.

One day at a time!

Easier said than done, right?!

My friend,
So happy to hear that your friend was able to receive her much needed transplant. I do hope she is doing well after her long surgery.
I'll be thinking of you and keeping you close in prayer as you travel to Pitts. today. Try to get plenty of rest, my friend. I sense your long awaited "call" is going to happen very soon.
My love,
Deb
