Can't Fight Biology

A few updates.  I was told that I am above 80% of the people on the lung transplant list nationwide.  This is good news and means I am right up there for a pair of lungs.  Just waiting on one that is my type and my size.  Being as small as I am (4'10") it can sometimes be hard to come by lungs that will fit in my chest cavity.  I just have to be patient.  Physically I am starting to notice increased coughing and I had a fever yesterday...

Merry Christmas All

I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday.  I was able to enjoy most of Christmas and the few weeks before hand.   It was a good time to go into the hospital and still be able to get out and enjoy the season.  My health did limit what I was able to do this year, but I did whatever my body would let me.  I took things easy and for the most part it was nice.

With a Little Help from My Friends

Well I am back in the hospital.  No real surprise there.  I came in Friday the 30th.  It seems like I end up in here every 4-6 weeks.  This was a little early but I was struggling to sleep through the night and breathing was getting harder and harder.  I also didn't want to wait and come in as bad as I was when I came in last time.  That was extremely uncomfortable.  This hospitalization has been much more pleasant than the last one.  I had a few rough moments and nights.  That is expected… I am in the hospital....
