Doing Well

Sorry I haven't been writing, there just hasn't been much to write about.

I keep getting good reports from the transplant doctors. I have now started going to clinic only once a week, compared to two weeks ago when I was going twice a week. I also started taking Pulmonary Function Tests every time I go to clinic now and the doctor said they look great.

I have continued to have physical therapy, and I am improving every time I go (which is every time I go to clinic). Last week I took the stairs from the third floor to the eighth floor, back down to the third floor, and then up to the fourth floor and back down to the third; this was all after walking 1.5 miles in about 30 minutes. My physical therapist said I was walking 3 miles an hour. Hopefully I continue to improve so I can run the Cystic Fibrosis walk at the end of April in San Dimas.

This is my family at the walk last year. (I couldn't go because I was in the hospital).

Super Bowl Sunday

The surgery went well everyone : ) I still have some pain from the last surgery and I am taking some pain meds for that, but other than that I am feeling really well.

Today I am going to watch the Super Bowl Game with my family and try and not be jealous that they can have chips and dip and all the other munchies they have prepared, while I am on a clear liquid diet, YAY!

I hope everyone had a great week last week. This next week will be filled with more doctors appointments for me. I have an appointment to check my sinuses and hearing, my regular clinic visit for transplant, and a follow up appointment with the doctor who did my last surgery. That reminds me, I still need to get my stitches out where my chest tubes were.

Enjoy the day everyone! Oh, any predictions on who will win the Super Bowl?
