Good vibes, Good prayers and Hopeful wishes.

Thanks for sharing man! and prayers coming!!


and you not alone! I been threw a shit tone of health problems in my younger years my self.

 

Yah then you can understand more then most at how exhausting it can be at times. Thank you for the prayers.

 

Hey man, i showed this to my whole family and my dad cried... Cystic Fibrosis hits home with them because my father's sister (my aunt, i just never met her) died of Cystic Fibrosis when she was 19 years old... this was in the 70's when nothing could really be done.... my whole family is sending prayers your way, my grandmother donates to a Cystic Fibrosis foundation to find a cure, just wanted to let you know that you got a lot of prayers coming your way, i know you'll pull through this, just be strong brother!

 

yeah. i know all about taking pills every days, I only had to take like 8 or so a day though. Tons and tons of blood work. Doctors every week. Have had a few surgeries as well.

 

that made my arm hairs stand up, I never like to hear sad stories like that, Losing a brother or sister to this disease is never fun to hear. There has been alot of great medical treatments since then so people are living well into there 30s-40s with the disease. Please tell your dad his strength and closeness to the disease gives me strength, So does everyone, Including all the prayers from you and the family as well!

I have no doubt in my mind that a cure will be found within 10 years.

 

Thankfully ive only had one major surgeries and a couple minor ones. I take well over 40 pills a day. I have my blood drawn twice a week and see my doctor every two weeks.

 

will do man, just stay strong for us!

 

Il continue fighting til my last breath, And ever with my last breath i will have the power to say, I never gave up.

 

Dont ever think your life is the worst, Chances are: Your life is probably pretty well when you think of all the factors that are forgotten

I pretty much recite this everyday, I wrote it one day and its stuck ever since.

 

Just to follow up, Today i was officially put onto the national donor list for a new set of lungs, I will hear more later about where i am on the list and how long i can expect to wait, Either way, The wait begins.

 

Good news man! Keep us posted!

 

Best of luck Jon. I sincerely hope everything works out in your favor. You seem to have the right attitude.





“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.” - Charles R Swindoll

 

This is awesome. Definitely praying for you and your family.

 

Thank you all for the kind words! It was really weird, Like a sign from god but today i was at my regular doctors appointment and they asked if i had heard from the transplant team about getting on the list and i said no, Not yet and literally 5 seconds later my phone rings and its the transplant team with the good news I never thought id be here but i fought through and made it.

Thank all of you for the kind words and wisdom, It truely does help alot! I feel the power of prayer. God bless all of you.

 

I think your guys prayers are kicking in im officially on the list as of this morning, May 15th. I am Blood Type A and that means im am First in line for the A type transplants. First set of lungs that has A type and fits me and are healthy ARE MINE

THANK ALL OF YOU! Literally my family is celebrating! Cake, Beer and Food and all

 

Thanks for sharing. Prayers coming your way....

Good job for turning your life around.

 

Thoughts r with ya buddy, stay strong. You r truly an inspiration

 

Thank you, Nothing is more gradifying that knowing you finally accomplished a goal like this in life, The feeling really is priceless.

Ah i know, But hell if not me then who?!? haha Thank you man. Keep on posting shit so i can keep on annoying you

Thank you sir, I dont consider my self an inspiration but if i can turn anyones life around with my story i would do it in a heartbeat. Actually decided early on that i am going to volunteer my time after my transplant to help kids that need motivation and inspriation. Wake up calls in life really do happen, Sometimes to late but thankfully i woke up before i never could.

 

IIRC type A is 30/35% of us, good odds! Best wishes and prayers for you.

 

Thank you sir! Yah im believe God will give me the gift when the time is right.
