Lots of very exciting things have been happening in the last couple of months. I'm going to skip forward a bit and tell every one what is happening in my life now. Breanna and I went to the Cystic Fibrosis clinic at Stanford on Wednesday August twenty sixth.
We have been given some interesting news. In fact the news is very exciting, uplifting, spiritually gratifying, and indeed it is a blessing and I thank Jesus for it. It would not be possible for me to have achieved it on my own only Christ has the power to make me better. He gives me tools and opportunity and I have tried very hard using those tools. Grabbing this opportunity with everything I have and watching God work in my life. Even when my illness is winning the fight, my faith in Jesus Christ is strong. My flesh is not always consistently the good servant. Aware that he is with me and he will never leave. This gives me hope and helps me pray and remember his sacrifice is his proof of his unconditional love for me even when I sabotage myself. Thank you to all who have encouraged me and helped me in his name. I love you all.
When we went to Stanford we found out my weight is up almost twelve pounds from one hundred and nineteen pounds in the beginning of June, to one hundred and thirty one pounds. Oxygen saturation off oxygen was ant 92%. Yes, that's on room air for more than four hours. I De-sat at about 15 seconds so... When we moved onto shell and Tracy's house my O2 was 84% off oxygen sometimes even as low as 74%.
The big question what was your P.F.T? Well it was twenty three percent... God is good.
We can be thankful that God has blessed me. Some people might say what does this mean?
If I catch a cold next week 16% could be right back, and that's how C.f is.
Some of you may not know this but when we walked into Stanford in April I was at 16%the doctors said the possibility of me being able to take myself out of the "Transplant Window" was impossible... Then on the next visit my lungs were at 18%. Then 19%. Now its 23% and the "Transplant Window" is shutting just a little more.("Transplant Window" is when they wont you to have a transplant, if you can. it starts at about 25% they wont consider me out until I hit about 3o% because of were I am maybe even higher.) My life is a constant struggle between sickness and heath and God is with me all the time. Even as my health improves my only wish is that his will be done. As long as he gives me breath I will continue to fight. So please when you go to pray thank God for all the blessing you have read, give him the praise.
