I’m glad I returned home last night and slept in my own bed, not the hospital. Although we don’t have the final results from many of the tests, the initial reports indicated no bacterial infection which is what the doctors were concerned about. The final results should be back by Monday.
Also, my routine bronchoscopy was cancelled last Tuesday so we will try and reschedule that for this week. A “bronch” is where they go down my nose with a camera and take lung tissue samples for signs of infection and rejection. Sounds lovely doesn’t it? Don’t worry it’s not too bad. It’s also the best method to check that everything is well with my new lungs.
I’m still tired today but I had a little more energy. Maybe it was a quick little bug that’s “bugging” me.

You are such an inspiration. Your attitude is upbeat and refreshing especially with all you have been through. I don’t comment often but follow your post. We went to the Breath of Life event last night and your heart would swell at all the donors. The money raised was over $800,000. Camden is doing well and we are working on next year’s concert entertainer.
