...It's a GO!
99.9% certain at this point that these lungs are IT! I'll be headed down to the OR in just a few minutes, but I wanted to stop by one more time and send my love and thanks out to all of you. Please keep the thoughts/love/light/prayers/vibes coming -- they are WORKING!
This is going to be good. I can feel it.
In the meantime, my lovely big sister Erin will be here to keep you updated.
Much love, beautiful people.
Piper
About Me
- Piper
- I am a 33-year-old wife, sister, daughter, friend, law school graduate, CFer, lifelong student of public service, blog writer, patient, Sagittarius, reader, Top chef fan, double-lung transplant recipient (twice!), and dog owner living in Colorado's beautiful Mile High City. I love all things colorful, funny, inspiring, or needlessly sarcastic. I share my city with about 2,500,000 other remarkable people, share my disease with 70,000 other beautiful souls, share my life with some unbelievable family and friends, and share my apartment with one very handsome guy and one really fat mutt with a kick-butt personality. We make it work.
About This Blog:
This blog is about me, my life, my sometimes craziness, my disease, and my current journey as a double-lung transplant recipient. It's also a celebration of everyone out there with CF (and other chronic illnesses). It's for you, inspired by you, and dedicated to you -- the community that keeps me writing, living, and breathing.
