TAKING FLIGHT - INSPIRATIONAL STORIES OF LUNG TRANSPLANTATION
Those who have a lung illness such as; Kartagener's Syndrome, Cystic Fibrosis, Pulmonary Hypertension, Emphysema, Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, Silicosis, COPD, Bronchiectasis, Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency, Sarcoidosis, or Lymphangioleiomyomatosis often will hear the words, "lung transplant". What next? What does it mean? Who has done this? Will life go on? These are just a few of the questions that one will think of. Lung recipients know this gut-wrenching feeling. They've lived the fears, the wonder and the surgery. But they also know the joy of life after transplant and that the adventures, goals and pursuits they've accomplished are part of the determination they've held onto. Their new given abilities, or their return to former careers, family and desires after transplant, provide inspiration to other pre and post lung and heart/lung recipients, family members, colleagues and to the doctors and surgeons they are now involved with. It is difficult to gather stories from all around the world (New Zealand, Australia, Israel, United States, etc.) for all various lung illnesses from those who were now
leading full, healthy lives. So I took it upon myself to contact this determined group of people and asked them to write their story, or if so desired, I would write their story for them. Write they did! All 255 lung recipients, heart/lung recipients, and caregivers were more than happy to share their "Flight Record" for others to learn, gain hope and inspiration from.
TAKING FLIGHT is a first for all of us that are lung recipients. A much needed first that will help so many to Take Flight on a smoother, more comforting journey."
