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

Preparing for a Busy Week!

Hello friends!

I hope you have all had a wonderful weekend! I was able to get to Mass yesterday with my mom and did some good exercising here at the apartment. I have also started working on my 3rd book. I might be crazy, but I am also excited. I plan for it to be very similar to my first book, A Journey Toward Spiritual Peace.

We have a busy week ahead. I have several appointments tomorrow and Tuesday and we will be taking my friend Cammi's mom, Judy, out to lunch between appointments. Hopefully tomorrow I will get a button for my feeding tube. That will be so much nicer than the tube I have hanging out now.

I am really hoping that we can head home to Olean on Thursday after my 11:30 ENT appointment. I can't believe we may be home at this time next week. I just hope nothing changes to disappoint me. I haven't even discussed it with Hannah because I don't want to disappoint her. I'll keep you posted as the week goes on.

All my love! Nancy

Hi Nancy!

Things are just looking up for you! I wish you the best this week with your appointments and I hope all the news is good and promising!

Gosh, your first trip home with new lungs. I can only imagine how you will be overcome with emotion. You have waited patiently and worked so hard for this! I hope your first time home is everything and more for you! I look forward to hearing about it!

Keep up the great work! You truly are a living example of one of God's disciples! Thank you for inspiring me and many others along your journey!

Here's to a good week! Love you Nance!

With love,

Debbie and Family
