Sometimes it seems so unreal, that all of this is happening to my body, because it is all happening so fast. It is hard to believe that one day, I too, will have new lungs and a new chance.

In October, we were told that she would not survive this hospitalization...that she would most likely not come home again. She was furious at her doctor for saying such a thing and furious at me for believing it. And she did go home after 9 weeks, only to return after a week. I sit here and watch her sleep after a horrendously painful three days (surgery to get a J-G tube, a G-tube and and appendostomy tube to irrigate her colon) and for the first time in quite some time, after reading your "Celebration", I have hope again that she too, will someday be celebrating a post transplant anniversary. <br /><br />Thank you for that gift.<br />Angie Connley<br />Mother of Adrianne OrelAngie Connleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924439865196022375.post-24047045351948073372010-12-12T23:26:22.636-05:002010-12-12T23:26:22.636-05:00Hi Piper,
