Back from the Lung Center…
So I got up today, drove to Philadelphia in freezing rain, did testing for 3 hours, met with the doctor. I thought I was doing ok, even though in this weather it is VERY difficult to breathe outside. A woman from the transplant team came in first and said “So what are you doing at home that we can tell others?” and proceeded to show me that nearly every test was better than the last time. Not a lot, but in an illness where it’s only supposed to get worse, the scores were a little better. I told her pizza and prayers. So they told me to go away and come back in six months but let them know if it gets worse in the meantime. And I drove home in a foggy snowstorm. Weird weather.
It’s all good. I will see another Spring and feel the warmth from the sun, I will see Alice in Wonderland in the theater, and who knows what all else I might do!! I will need to set some new goals.
And thank you all SO MUCH for your good thoughts and prayers. Something is working and I believe that’s it. And thank you, God.
