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

She will be missed!

Whitney Fleming 
(Died February 8, 2011)


Whitney Rae Fleming, 34, passed away on February 8, 2011 after a long courageous fight with chronic lung disease. She was born January 29, 1977 in Oklahoma City, OK. She graduated from Bishop McGuinness HS in 1995 and the University of Central Oklahoma in 1999 where she was a member of the Alpha Gamma Delta Sorority and received a BS degree in Marketing. Directly out of college she was employed by SBC Communications as sale specialist. From there she was able to transition into what she loved, marketing. She began this adventure in the marketing department for Coppermark Bank before holding her final position as Marketing Coordinator for Metro Family Magazine. Her greatest passion in life was the love of her children, the “boys” as she called them. She also had a special talent for graphic layout and design and offered her skills freely to many friends and associates in designing “tweet ups” on Twitter. Whitney is preceded in death by her maternal grandparents W.D. and Quata Moss; her paternal grandparents Edgar and Jessie Wood; her uncle Dale Moss; and her HS friend and college roommate Jennifer DeCastro. She is survived by her husband, Stephen, and sons, Owen and Wyatt, of the home; her father Charles Wood, Edmond, OK; her mother and stepfather Maxie Wood Townsend and Allen Townsend, Edmond, OK; stepsisters Angela Dewey and husband Delbert, Dibble, OK and Morgan Townsend, Oklahoma City, OK; her aunts, uncles, cousins and many devoted friends. The family invites friends to a reception from 6:00 to 8:00pm on Friday, February 11th at Crawford Family Funeral Service, 610 NW 178th Street in Edmond. A service to celebrate Whitney’s life will be at 2:00pm on Saturday at Crossings Community Church with interment at Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens.
