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 Great Time in Vermont!

We had such a wonderful weekend in Vermont! Our cousin Emily's wedding was awesome, probably the best wedding I've ever been to. She looked stunning and was glowing with happiness. The reception was filled with good food, music, and dancing. I danced for the first time in several years. I think Hannah got a real kick out of dancing with me.


It was a lovely weekend for an outdoor wedding. Several things were planned, a cocktail party Friday night, the wedding Saturday, and breakfast Sunday morning, so there was a lot of time to visit and enjoy everyone's company.


Scott's mom rode with us and we stayed in a condo at Mt. Snow ski resort with my sister-in-law Leslie and her husband Jeff. It was so enjoyable spending time as a family. We did some sightseeing and shopping on Saturday morning together.

Here are some pictures and a video of Hannah and Scott dancing. I have more pictures to post later.

I don't look happy or anything, do I?

We were the dancing queens!


Look at them dance!
