My Dad Deserves More Than 1 Day!

Happy Fathers' Day to ALL the Fathers out there!

I wanted to post a list to why I'm sooo thankful for my dad (its faster, bit more fun, and I gotta get ready for my Dad's Cookout still)!!!

Top 15 (10 isn't enough..lol) reasons Dad should get more than a day of celebration:

15. He loves meeting people, making friends, and is quite social.
14. When something goes wrong, he is the person that can say the right thing to make me smile :-)
13. Is always honest.
12. Few yrs ago, he gave me HIS car, (so i could get back and forth to work/play practices) He rode his bike to work and back (he enjoys it too tho)
11. Best Sense of Humor!
10. He never complains, ever!
9. Growing up my Dad worked 6am-3pm at one job and 4:30-10pm at another.
8. Dad still managed to go to 99.9% of my performances
7. He is the least judgemental person ever, he talks to & helps everyone!
6. He is a pro at making doctors, insurance companies, & hospitals do what needs to be done!
5. When he has extra days left he can take off work, he uses them to work on the Farm (helping out Grandpa & my Uncle).
4. Even with all the stress from Medical bills, procedures,etc. People will still tell you he is the funniest and most sincere guy. (My friends call him "Da Man")
3. He helps neighbors with cutting trees, picking up after storms, taking out trash cans, etc.
2. When I was growing up, he'd save his Vacation days to spend them in hospital room, sleeping on a cot. :-(
1. I know I can always count on him, He'd do anything for my Mother, my Sister, and I.

Truely,  I am very thankful for my Dad, he is the most respectful, loyal, hard-working person I know!
Love you, Dad!

Today's BIG Appointment

 I discussed last week about my recent struggles & goals. I have been dealing with a lot all at once! Family planning (update on that in 2 weeks), my Grandma's funeral, lower lung function. Through it all I have remained very compliant with my meds! My health is VERY important to me. So this last weekend I took my vest machine, wabi sterilizer system , and packs of ensure to my parent's for the weekend. I wanted to make sure I did everything. While it was a sad occasion, it was still pleasant seeing almost all of the family together again. Actually 27 out of 29 of the cousins made it to the funeral. Grandpa is in the middle of the picture (can you find me?) LOL   On top of my medications I have been doing some dancing & walking, but no jogging or anything. I'm still counting calories on my fitbit (hitting over 3000) a day (& 40 grams of protein, 50 grams of fat at least). I knew I was feeling a bit better than before, but wasn't sure what to expec...

My Clinical Trial Mess

A Clinical Trial Mess: Monday, I had an appointment for a clinical trial evaluation. Let me start out by saying, I always get  amazing care at my doctors...HOWEVER, this evaluation was done by a third party brought in to handle the research. The research nurse was a flibberty jibbet. She was nice, but kept just re-organizing her supplies, like she didn't know what to do. She seemed nervous. She mentioned she usually had another nurse with her. She took my weight, height, urine test, pre-med spirometry test (PFT-pulmonary function test) Next she decided to draw the blood, while waiting for the pft results to print. She got out the supplies and the sterile paper that she places it all on. She dropped te paper on the floor and proceeded to place the packaged needles and supplies on it.... So in my head I tell myself "Okay...( inhale control exhale my germfreak...) it's okay, it won't kill me..it only touches the bottom of my arm, not the actual place that she is dra...

End of Summer -Updates!

Wow, I can't believe it's been a year since we moved our blog to www.MoreThanDNA.org! A lot has happened in that year. My husband and I became Foster Parents to some amazing kiddos and still have one of those kiddos living with us. We have loved having "Shoes" with us and can't believe how much he has grown and learned in the year!I'm so proud of him! We have court next week, so prayers that it goes okay (and doesn't get continued again- that just drags it out longer for the kids). He is now 39 months old and starting Pre-K this month! Other big changes include: Some renovation to our home (complete Bath rehab & updated plumbing throughout), I started a new gene-targeting medication (symdeko) that is helping to keep me stable these last 3 months, and I got an AffloVest! I'm loving my new portable vest! Also, career wise...we both switched jobs! Andrew also started Seminary this summer to get a Masters Degree in Divinity. He has always wanted to be ...
