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

How Great is Our God!

I can't remember if I have mentioned this before, but Scott and I were asked to record a song for a benefit CD that will be sold to help a young woman with CF raise money for a double lung transplant. Though we were both quite nervous about this prospect, we agreed to try. We recorded How Great is Our God by Chris Tomlin, you are currently hearing it on my playlist. It is not professional, but was done from the heart, my voice has deteriorated quite a bit in the last few years and Scott is only a beginning guitar player, but I think all things considered, it sounds okay.

Hannah is also featured, you can hear her and Grace Emley (her friend) singing "Sing with me..." and she also sings "Name above all names.."

It was a lot of work and took a lot of time, but I am so glad we will be able to make a contribution to the CD. Once it is available for purchase, I will let you all know.

I have been feeling quite under the weather the last few days, some kind of stomach virus, hopefully it will go away soon!

All my love! Nancy

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.

For quite a long time, I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and I started with funny 500 bucks.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my blog to get additional info.

Good day, sun shines!
There have been times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in large initial investment.
Nowadays, I'm happy and lucky , I started take up real money.
It gets down to select a proper companion who uses your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the profit with me.

You can ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:

To the anonymous poster who is leaving financial advise: Why are you using this site? If you are a friend of Nancy's, you would list your name. I have never met Nancy but have followed her progress ever since reading her story in our local paper.

Surely you could find a site better suited to your agenda.
