Hey guys I've started this page as most of you know I've been in and out he hospital recently. No I don't update often on my personal page as I don't want my couples to  worry.

So I've added you because I'm thinking maybe you'll want an update and im a lazy bitch who doesn't want to write to everyone and fill them in.

For one- I'm not dying, my lungs are great, my liver is acting up as well as my kidneys a little

For seconds - they are trying to find the source, which could very well be my anti rejections.

Ok so I'll keep you updated when I know stuff. There isn't a magic cure , nor will there be a wonderful answer.

Please don't think me rude if I don't write back every time someone asks how  I am.

Sometimes I don't even know how I am, not in a pity party way just in a , I am how I am and I need to deal with it.

There is always someone worse off so don't be forgetting that.

Ps thank you to those who give blood. I needed another blood transfusion meaning   I needed two pints as my haemoglobin was dangerously low.

Day 18 post op

Saturday Day 18: I woke at 8am and did my drugs and colomycin before heading back to bed and I slept in till 10.30am. I was so happy to be still in bed at such a late time, it’s the best sleep I’ve had ion ages. We watched another wire and stayed in bed for most of the day. Then Doug’s jumped over to lie beside me and knocked my knee where it dislocated. I lay for about 3 minutes trying to put it back in whilst trying to not pass out. It eventually went back in but Doug wanted to call the hospital. Mum is coming to join me this week as I can’t stay in the flat myself. We have a clinic appointment on Tuesday morning, so mum arrived about 2pm today and we had some lunch. At 3.30pm Doug’s and I went for a walk and braved the Newcastle winds and rain. As we walked Dougie said he hadn’t ever walked as fast for as long with me before We took a walk around the park and pond and back to the flat but it was a 50minute walk and my legs were killing me. My mum has brought stuff for me to exercise...

Day Two post op

On day two post op Friday I got myself up out a chair and went to move my drains and then had myself a little panic attack. I think the drains reminded me of my lung collapse and I felt like the air was vanishing from me. The nurse walked in and sat with me whilst I apologised and started to breathe better again. The physio came in and got me up on my feet marching on the spot, nice and slow and then lifting my leg a bit further then I had another wee panic attack. The physio said I’ve been through a lot and how well I was doing but I’m just so aware that I have such an amazing opportunity with these lungs that I don’t want to ruin in any way. Day three Saturday My two lower chest drains were removed today, nice to not have any drains, now it’s just two to go. Dougie arrived down on Saturday. I had said there was no use as he wouldn’t be able to get in but he wanted to just come down and wave from the window. He also brought me down my phone and some stuff from the house. Dad had gone ...

July 2017

Most of you know for months now I haven't been well. I returned from a holiday in New York filled with an excess of 5 lbs of fluid, and when I went to hospital this doubles to ten as my team tries to work out what was happening. My kidneys were strained , my liver was reacting badly , I was fatigued and well we didn't really have answers. We moved about on fluid tablets which  got rid of the fluid I was sent home and was back up in a week severely dehydrated. There has been so many guesses, fumbles, tests, blood tests out my ears that my veins have began collapsing and still we never seemed to come close to an aanswer. this instagram is my journey. I'll be hashtagging stuff from the past it's 5am the now Andi don't have the strength to go over everything but let's just say There have been moments where I'm not sure if my story is coming to an end or not. and I've told my husband that if that were the case I don't want him to let anyone say ...
