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

Would you like to help a transplant patient in need?

For the next 60 days, the UPMC Heart, Lung, and Esophageal Surgery Institute offers you the chance to help. The Gene and Marlene Epstein Humanitarian Fund has issued a 1:1 matching challenge - up to $50,000 - in memory of Gene's brother, a cardiothoracic transplant recipient. The Epstein Challenge, when met, will provide transitional support for post-transplant patients who are struggling to cover the costs of their medications. Each dollar you donate will be matched 100%.

If you are willing, Please send a check made payable to CT Patient Assistance Fund to me at P.O. Box 5 Westons Mills, NY before December 15. I will send all of the checks in together to the Medical and Health Sciences Foundation at UPMC. What a wonderful Christmas gift to give to someone in need!

Thank you for considering this request!
