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

Busy, Busy, Busy

Hello Dear Friends!

I am sorry I have been slacking in keeping up my blog.  All I can say is that I am busy, which is terrific!  It seems so nice to have things to do and to be able to do them.

I was asked to speak to the Allegany-Limestone Middle/High School at the end of the month, so I have been brainstorming ways to communicate with them about CF and transplant while at the same time keeping them interested and entertained.  I am hoping Scott will be able to come and record it, so that I can share this presentation with all of you.  Then you can let me know if I succeeded in my goals of educating AND entertaining!

I can't remember if I shared, but I had applied to be a volunteer for the Upstate New York Transplant Services - UNYTS.  I have been accepted as a volunteer and will be meeting with one of their staff members at the end of the month to discuss what role I can play in their organization.  I am very excited about this!

I have also made two new friends in the last two weeks, one preparing for the transplant process and the other a mother with CF who is still doing well and not yet ready for transplant.  I can't tell you how much it means to me to hear from people who have discovered my blog and have found strength or hope from it.  I have been blessed with so many new friends, thank you for letting them find me dear Lord!

Thank you all for your continued love and support!  Nancy

You did such a great job of announcing for the Irish dancers the other night! I'm sure you will be an inspiration to the kids in Allegany! People can't help but be moved by your story and your postitive attitude. God is using you in many ways!
