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 wasn't chosen.

Hello!



I did receive word that I was not chosen for the medication group of the study. I was disappointed, but the good thing is, if I start to show signs of rejection or they feel at any time I could benefit from the medication, they will switch me to that group, which is unusual for a research study. As with everything in my life, I realize God has a plan and for some reason I am not meant to receive this medicine at this time. I have accepted that and trust in my Lord.



We have discovered a great movie theater near by that only charges $.99 (Can you believe it?). So, we have taken advantage this week and went to see 4 Christmases (Very cute!) and Australia (long, but good, I am not sure why the critics didn't like it). Australia was almost 3 hours long and my skinny little bum is sore. I need to remember to bring my special bum pad next time.



Today was mismatch day at Hannah's school, what a wonderful day for a 9 year old, she could wear anything she wanted, hooray!

Hi Nancy!

I am sorry to hear that you were not chosen this time. God does have a plan and He will provide in His time.

$0.99 for a movie? Get out of here! That is one awesome find! I would be taking full advantage of that as well. Good for you!

Hannah looks as cute as ever even if she is mismatched. She is just beaming, we know where she gets that smile from!

Here's wishing you a wonderful weekend. Keep up the great work. We are so proud of you!

We love you,

Debbie and Family
