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

I'm a Medical Mystery!

Well, I feel like I am on an episode of House (luckily, House isn't my doctor though, if he were I'd be in tears all of the time!) We are having difficulty figuring out what is going on with me. Although I do have some signs of sinusitis in my upper sinuses, no one is convinced that is the cause of my fevers and headache. I did have an ENT evaluation yesterday and my sinuses were swabbed, but the results of those test won't be back for 2 to 3 days. The fever has returned, along with the headache each evening. Today they are going to test my CO2 levels and I am going to repeat the 6 minute walk.

So, I really don't have any new news to report, we are just hanging out here at UPMC. I'll keep you posted... Nancy

Geez, Nance! Do you have to keep stumping the medical people! Talk about being EXTRA special! Really, though, I hope they can figure out how to bring you some comfort. You have enough on your plate without adding fevers and headaches to the mix.
As always, your in my prayers, sweet friend. Hang in there. God has a plan.
Love you!
