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.

How many tubes does it take to get a transplant?
My life with CF is full of coughing. Cough, cough, cough. Spit, spit, spit. CF people have different mediums to dispose of the nasty mucus that clogs our lungs each and every day. For me, the least disgusting and most economical is rolls of TP. I don't know HOW may rolls i have gone through in my life, but my mom and I thought it would be funny to see how many rolls i collect until i get my transplant. Just to give you an idea, Casey and I must buy a huge thing of TP at costco almost every month because i go through so much!!! So right now, I believe there are 8 rolls i have collected (some were ALMOST empty at the time i was placed on the list) but i have 8 rolls collected thus far... lets see how many it takes!
