Doing All My Meds, say Wha?? :-)

On Track:

I've done all my meds since last Saturday! Wow, a full week!!! Which means I have finished my 5th FULL week! I'm participating in a CF fundraising Walk and my I promised everyone that for each $100 raised I will do a full week of meds! So far we have raised $645 (online) so I have another full week of skipping NOTHING to go! I will count cash/checks when they are turned in (either before or at walk).

I'm going to add that for every 5 new walkers registered I will do a full week as well! So join the walk and get four family or friends to join us too and I will do another full week!

We currently have 20 members, so anyone who joins starting now will be counted!

I know, I know, "you should do all your meds anyway..."  I try. But it is hard to stick to it. Late at night when I'm tired after play practice I want to just fall asleep. I don't want to stay up another hour to do meds. But knowing my family and friends have been actively getting people to join or raising money, reminds me how much everyone cares and reminding me why I do them in the first place!

Doing all my meds, man, I'm hoping to keep this up and stay on track!

I'd love to start jogging more. I haven't had much time. Now, I'm back to work, school, still in the play, and don't have a lot of spare time and when I do... I sleep. Sleep=good. Being back doing everything has been wearing me out a bit, but I LOVE being back and eventually I will get used to it!
And the play and school ends soon, so this summer I should have lots more time!

Very much looking forward to summer! And hoping my Clinic next month shows some increase in my numbers (since I'm doing sooo many meds, etc)!!! It should pay off! :-)

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...

Calling All Who Care!

     Please Read : Okay, so first off I want to say that this post is tough. It's tough to think about and write. However, it is extremely important and a huge topic in the CF Community, and is VERY NEAR AND DEAR to MY HEART!  First I want to ask you... What if I told you I needed a Transplant. That I needed to reach a certain weight, get my kindeys functioning better, get a higher pain tolerance, and get off a couple medications I take right now. What if I said I couldn't receive a 2nd chance at life unless I reached these goals and I raised a certain amount of money that seems impossible to raise. What if I had been in and out of the hospital off and on for the last year, with many surgeries, had multiple infections and my lung function dropped from 40s to the teens and now is slowly dropping still. What if I was starting to wonder if my decision to go through the grueling Transplant tests was worth it. What if I start to get down about my cf and wondering why ev...

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 ...
