Went to Houston in july , did a transplant games of america, it was 40 states  & it was the most compititive event i ever did in my whole life , I meet other recipients  donor families living donors , it was just the best experience to happen tome 🙂 I did all track & feild , coming from a person who couldnt even take 3 steps on oxygen 24/7  thats a huge lmao  so  let me tell you alil about it , I did  run of 100 meter  i came in 4th out of 8  I was the oldest in my age group , I was also the only lung tx in that group so I did great and ran it in 22.10 sec.. woohoo   I did shot put diskit  which i never did b4 LMAO  soft ball throw   long jump  so i won 2 medals there  a bronze for long jump I jumped over 5 feet  🙂    diskit  silver  I  threw 36 feet 🙂  and i was on the basket ball team  we came in 3rd in the championship game so we got a bronze for that too & one for a 5k ..

I accomplished another goal 🙂   My lung capasity was 14 with mobility and 15 sitting down , today 71 ..  Fight to live & succeeding the most wonderful feeling so far , all tho they say 5 yrs for lung tx  I say 5 yrs is more then i wouldve had but i plan on being here 20 yrs  18 to go  LMAO
