Food and Dancing (what a busy day!)

Food and Dancing (what a busy day!)

On every Saturday morning for the last year and a half I deliver mobile meals to people in the community. I really love doing it, the people I deliver to are amazing! Today, one of the older men I deliver to gave me a picture that he cut out of the paper. It was of my cousins (twins) holding their soccer team's trophy.

Then I had play practice (its a hour drive there, and an hour back) so that takes up a chunk of the day, but since the play is Hairspray, I decided it is more than worth a couple hours in the car.

It had been 5 years since I had been to our local Mexican Restaurant Los Ranchitos and I'm not sure why. However, I loved it! The food was great, the price was decent, service was good, and overall a fun time! It was really busy, good thing they added on a while back!

I ate quite a bit today, but that is good, since the pharmacy hasn't sent me more stomach feeding bags. Tonight will be my third night without any feeding. I have lost 2 pounds I'm pretty sure because of it..

I got my Vitamin D retested, but results aren't in yet. I will keep you posted!

How Fostering and CF impact my work

I haven't been on my blog much.... I think that is because most of my blogging is currently been done on Health Union's Cystic-Fibrosis.com (here is link to all my posts on their site: https://cystic-fibrosis.com/members/cherizkunkel/ ). I decided last fall to step away from real estate after 3 years in the business. It was tough to say good-bye, especially since I had tripled my volume and business in the last year. However, I didn't have time to add any new clients; I kept saying, maybe next week, next month I can fit more work into my schedule. The truth is fostering takes a lot of time. We have between 5-8 monthly visits at the agency, 1 court ate a month, 2 home visits from the caseworker a month, plus e have 2-3 doctors/specialist appointments for our current kiddo. We have lots of paperwork we fill out, gas mile logs, receipts to add, and more! Our kiddo also participates in gymnastics and dance two nights a week. We go to a fosterparent support group with our kid ...

Laura/Lara- two amazing gals

My first CF fundriaser was in 2008 at a CF Walk that Laura to...

Video Blog: Life in the hospital (as a child)

The daily life in the hospital! Most people cringe at the idea of a hospital. However, when I was little I never minded going into the hospital. I usually would have at least one other friend with Cystic Fibrosis to hang out with there (before we knew about the "CF Bugs"). I didn't love being sick, but I loved my CF friends that I would hang out with. Also the hospital, nurses, and my parent's tried to make it a "normal" environment. I got up and put on cute clothes, "walked to school", flirted with a couple CF boys, did homework, came "home" (back to my room), my friends would ask my parent if I could go play with them. We'd hang out in the play room or go on a walk with one of my parents! My dad loved taking me on walks and I LOVED going on our walks! Here is a video blog of the route we took and bit of information on what is was like growing up (for a chunks at a time) in the hospital! (it is posted via youtube, let is dow...
