Welcome to the organized chaos that is my life; you have fallen down a rabbit hole and instead of Wonderland you find yourself in Sick Lady Land! Welcome. Join me as I set out to get my second double-lung transplant. This space is to keep friends and family updated and connected as this second transplant journey unfolds.
