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

Choice Made

I know you have all been on pins and needles today wondering which stuffed animal Hannah would choose. And the winner is....




The Monkey!!!!!!


Now, this decision was not based on my suggestion, but on Sweet Pea who seems to like the monkey more, oh well, I guess a kitten's opinion is more important than a Mom's.


Hannah also had to share her new bunny slippers that she got for $2 at Old Navy, she is a bargain hunter just like her mom, I've trained her well (future husband beware!).



We have had a quiet day here at the apartment. I walked my laps and did some Yoga, so I'm feeling sore. Tomorrow morning I start the study I told you about. I have to be at the hospital at 8:15 to sign the releases, have blood drawn, and do pulmonary function tests. Now, hopefully, I will be placed in the group that gets the inhaled medication.
I hope you have a great night! Nancy

Yeah! I was secretly hoping she would choose the monkey!! Her bunny slippers are too cute. She has such great taste and they look so comfy!

Good luck tomorrow! I hope it all goes well. I hope the end result is everything that you had hoped for.

Thinking of you always and wishing you much happiness!

Love you,

Debbie

So cute. I just love a good bargain!! Good Girl!! I loved your shoes too!! What a fun gift.

I can only imagine what it is like to try and become independent again after such a long time. I am postive that each day and each outing will get a little easier and eventually you will once again be comfortable with your independence. Each little step will make you stronger and more confident.

You can do it Nancy. Lots of love to you tonight!

Love and hugs,
Amy
