Class and Crafts!

Class and Crafts

Sorry, I disappeared for a bit. I had lots of exams and papers due last week for my classes. I also wanted to focus on getting back on track. I discussed how I had been getting off track with my meds and everything in my last few posts.

I have been doing better. I'm still not doing all my meds everyday, but it really is quite difficult to even fit in the ones that I can do. I need to start jogging now too though. I didn't add it back into my schedule at first, for fear of adding too much.

So besides class, what have I been up to? well, when I do my meds and treatments, I have found some fun things to keep me occupied. I have been painting and organizing my scrapbooking stuff. I do some crafting too, like making picture frames, etc. My mom has been crafting a lot too lately. Well, technically she has been sewing and crocheting. We both sells some of our products at a local store called Annie's  Little Pots!

We also are doing a craft show in a couple of weeks! My mom is sooo talented and I can't sew or crochet, but I do like home decor or craft projects. Here is a link to my mom's creations if you want to see them: Mom's Creations!


So I will keep crafting and doing meds! But hopefully I will add jogging to my schedule too! I have Clinic in 1 month! :-)

First blog: Hello

My first Blog: A little About Me I'm not sure why I have decided to start a blog, however, here I am.  I have honestly thought about writing about my life for years, but have always chickened out. I have finally decided to share the experiences life has thrown at me. The biggest reason I have been asked to blog by people is because of everything I have dealt with medically. I have Cystic Fibrosis and a few other medical problems...This is probably the best reason why I should blog. I can relate to others who are dealing with medical problems, however,my CF is also why I did not want to write this blog. CF can be embarssing and annoying sometimes... but it  has helped define who I have become to be as a person. Therefore, (yes, even though I want it cured) I don't hate having CF. Let me start off with some basic info and statements. I'm 26 yrs old and have dealt with CF all my life. In this blog you will hear recent stories (good, bad, embarassing); a...

Holding Down the Fort

My husband, Andrew, is currently at Wartburg Theological Seminary and is starting his first week of his second year there. Every year he lives on campus for one week. He enjoys starting each semester on campus where he can build friendships with other students and professors. It's the only time he is on campus. Usually he does long-distance learning, online, from home. It was the only way we could manage him doing a four year Master degree program while working. This week is the hardest for us. However, we have something on Thursday and Friday this week, so Andrew will only be gone 3 days instead of the typical full five. So that will make this week a bit easier than the other semesters. It's hard for Andrew to be away, although I know he is having a blast. We send random pictures back and forth like a book he may be reading or a game I may be playing with our kiddo. It is hard for the kid(s) to not see Andrew every day. We are foster parents and stability is a BIG issue for ...

Thank you soooo much everyone for supporting me and the CF GreatStrides Walks! I hope you enjoy hearing about the cool new ways steps are being taken towards finding a cure for CF and how everyone has helped me and us (the cf community)! New Treatments And Break Throughs: As you may know, from reading my last couple blogs. Some exciting news was released!  VX-809 + Kayldeco Phase 3 (6 month clinical trials) has started! Which means if all goes well, this could be on the market in the next year or two. This drug helps target the actual faulty gene. It will help improve our lung function (hopefully gain some back, the part that isn't damaged) and will help us to slow the decline of our lungs health tremendously!
