Hello friends!
Another day at UPMC. The sun is shining and God is good!
We are still hoping I will be released tomorrow, though it may be later in the day. They have changed my antibiotic combination again, based on some recent lab results, but hopefully that won't put a hold on release. According to the doctor this morning, it also sounds like I may have moved up on the transplant list based on my resent testing. I won't know for sure until I talk to Dr. Pilewski, but that certainly sounds like a good sign that I am getting closer to my miracle.
Yesterday was a good day. I was able to catch up with one of my favorite nurses, Pat, who works on this floor in a different unit. I also had a visit from another friend from Family House, Tammy, and her parents. I was able to get to Mass yesterday with my mom. It felt great to get out and worship with others. I was also able to sit in what we call the "secret garden", a beautiful garden patio on the 7th floor here at Montefiore.
I have been making the most of my time here and have even begun my next book, a guide to help others with chronic and terminal illness. I continue to pray that God can use me to help and bring peace to others.
Love to you all! Nancy

Good Evening Nancy! Sounds like a wonderful day! Gosh I miss your mom, and you too of course! I'm so glad you were able to go to mass, and enjoy the beauty of the world. We will pray that you will move up on the list, and also that your lungs will come very soon! Hopefully that new antibiotics workup - will make a bigger difference for you. Lots of love and thoughts for your!
God Bless!
