Surgery Still On, I Can Do This!

I can keep it up:

This past blog I discussed my fail at doing everything I needed to. I mentioned having a fever, well the Cipro is doing nothing. I'm not responding to it. I've probably built up a tolerance. So they are putting me on some steroids for the next four days and instead I'm supposed to focus on doing extra nebs A LOT and I'm supposed to do Cayston and Tobi, which usually I only do one a month, because they are nebulized antibiotics. But I will be doing both until after my surgery. And good news my temperature has been normal most of today and only went up to 99.5 for an hour ish.

So if I do tons of meds, walk on the treadmill and get my lungs working better. All should be well with my surgery on Tuesday. But I need to actually do it! So I apologize in advance if I don't hang out or do much this week. I need to get healthy by Tues. I have ONE WEEK to do this and  I need this surgery. Without it work won't happen. Without work I get farther behind in bills and it just can't go that way.

So here it is. Day 1 of kicking my booty in gear!

AND THANK YOU! I have reached my personal goal of $1,000 for the Cf Walk! I'm hoping my team can raise double what we did last year (roughly $2,500 this year)!!!! I'm sooo lucky to have my family and friends there to support me! I can't wait until Saturday to see everyone, you have no idea. I look forward to the CF Walk more than I do Christmas. It reminds me why we (Cfers) fight so hard. We fight for everyone we love. And I know I am very lucky to have so many people in my life who love me and are willing to donate, fundraise and walk every year! 

I am one lucky girl! http://www.cff.org/Great_Strides/dsp_DonationPage.cfm?walkid=8670&idUser=187918

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 ...

First, of all since I was admitted last Thurirsday morning, I have gained weight. 1. because I don't have time to make food and eat at home as much as I need and 2. Who wouldn't devore a meal of roast beef, potatoes, veggies, fruit, and pudding at 6pm then order anothertray with shrimp and rice, and more dessert at 7pm? 1. So as of today I am 107.4 lbs! This is the highest I have been in a very long time. To check out my weight and lung functions changes over the years click here- Clinic-My Health Page! Only, down side...I need to buy new pants and running shorts, none of them fit me...I'm cheap and picky with clothes..so it may take a while. However, I'm sure a trip to Delia's will change my mind. Ps. for some reason Delia's usually fit, when others are t...
