I am a 35 year old woman with cystic fibrosis who received the gift of new lungs on November 22, 2010. Over the years this blog has chronicled many different parts of my transplant experience. This next chapter is a new big adventure, where goals drive and dreams come true. None of this would be possible without my donor, a stranger who I have yet to know, but is and always will be my hero.

My life as I know it
Hello to those who want to check out my blog. This is my first post, as you can see.... I guess I will talk about what is going on for me now. Many things keep me busy, especially my journey with my CF. The newest is that my wonderful port, which has kept my IVs, as conflict free as possible, has come to its end of life. I am scheduled to get a new one on Friday, August 22. Inorder to do this well, my plan is to go into the hospital on the 21, and begin IV antibiotics after the surgery. So I will be in the nut house for a few days, but I will be able to deal. I just took some me time, which was most needed, and spent time at the pool, all by myself, no one else there. How wonderful. So My day of serenity, will be complimented by a crazy week next week. My goal is to go to the pool each day between now and hospital day, because after the port surgery it will be a while before i want to go back to the pool, and then summer will be over! So I am here, soaking up rays and prepping for what will be an interesting few weeks ahead....
