I’m thankful I was able to surprise my little cousins in Disneyland, thankful for grant funding, doctors who listen, and ending the year with good health.

In January I’m starting pottery classes, which I’ve wanted to to do for years! And I’m also taking a virtual cake class. Plus lots of fun things coming to my journaling program. I just want to…[Read more]

Yes, exactly!

I’m pretty open about my health and experiences but I only share my experiences. I know my parents and other family are affected by my health but I’d strongly to prefer their experiences and how they are affected rather than sharing my story, if that makes sense

I go for fashionably comfortable! I’m not about to wear jean or other ‘hard pants’ during an admission but I do like to feel somewhat out together. My go to lately is pajama sets with matching joggers and T-shirts from Lates by Kate. Pricey but worth it for me. I stick with my skincare routine but no makeup.

Trikafta actually made my GI issues quite worse. I was never able to change my enzyme dosage and many of my symptoms got worse or were more active.

I am soooo dang excited about fall!

we are hoping to go to the zoo (during a private event which means limited people, yay!), explore Red Butte gardens while it’s a bit cooler, and maybe do a lit…[Read more]

It’s one of my favorite memories and I was devastated when it all ended, though I understood why. Since it was CF camp I was on top of all my treatments and meds, it was part of the ‘schedule’. While I was respo…[Read more]

I love the taste of Hawaiian style shaved ice, soft serve ice cream cones, a cold crunchy pickle or a cold Topo Chico.

My morning routine sometimes varies a bit day to day, but it’s something that’s important to me and makes me feel grounded at the start of the day.

1. Get up and pee then take the dog out.

2. Water, coffee, morning meds and treatments.

3. Journal, meditation, then breakfast.
