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

So Tired

My dear friends,

I know you worry when you don't hear from me for a few days and I apologize for leaving you hanging.  Although the IVs are making me feel better (no more fever and a better appetite), I have been extremely exhausted and have been sleeping quite a bit.  I have to be honest, it is discouraging spending such beautiful days sleeping, but my body is tired and obviously in need of extra sleep.  I have a hard time staying mentally up when I am so tired, but I pray each day for continued strength and patience.

I wanted to thank you all for the positive responses you gave to my posting on becoming an organ donor.  I am so proud of you for taking this issue so seriously and was thrilled to hear that some of you had also added organ donation to your licenses.  What a beautiful gift you are giving to those of us in desperate need!

I hope you are all well.  Please know that you are in my heart and my thoughts daily!  Nancy
