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

A Beautiful Day!

Hello friends! I am sorry I have been out of touch for a few days. I had a couple of bad anxiety days and didn't feel like doing anything at all. That seems to have passed and I am feeling better. I was able to attend Hannah's Open House at school the other night. It is fun to see all the wonderful things the kids have accomplished during the year. She is signing up for band next year, so we got all of the information about how to rent a flute, that is the instrument she has chosen.

I have been walking each day and though it doesn't seem to get easier, I know it is strengthening my legs and giving me a little more energy, so that is reinforcing. I have also been attending a Bible study on Fridays and that has been a nice way to get out of the house and share my faith with a group of wonderful ladies.

We have had a couple of beautiful warm days, so I have enjoyed being outdoors a bit. We are planning to camp out on Friday in the grove behind our house, so that is a fun adventure to look forward to.

Well, that is really all I have to report. I hope you are having a wonderful week! Love, Nancy

Nancy! (((HUGS))) I am so glad that you are doing soooo well! And a flute is an AWESOME choice *wink wink* We are getting ready to enter into 3rd year of it here.

I love you girl and you are forever in my heart and prayers!

Hello there, Nancy! Sorry that it's been a while. I see you went to my hometown of Wellsboro. It is a beautiful place. I'm glad that you had a good time. I'm glad that things are going well for you. I understand about the moods and anxieties. I'm sure mine are not the same as yours, but I go thru the moods and slight depression states too. I'm still struggling with the post surgical stuff myself. So, you are not totally alone. Well, better days are coming! Keep the chin up and take care! Love all of you very much! God Bless!
