Letter from Christina

Welcome to my life at pancake rocks! My name is Christina and I am a 15 year double lung transplant warrior who was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at 16 years old. Regardless of the diagnosis, my health, and people telling me to slow down; I went out on my own and obtained my doctorate in pharmacy and became a licensed pharmacist.

I married a wonderful man who has stayed by my side through it all. We are blessed with two beautiful children by adoption and two sweet dogs (who are basically toddlers with fur). I have traveled and lived in Europe and dealt with many health issues through all of this.

Faith has led me through and to this point in my life where I wish to share my knowledge and experience to help inspire and encourage others with lung diseases or caretakers of those suffering.

Through life’s wild roller coaster ride, I know you have a purpose and your life can be a wonderful positive one even when the days seem dark and cold.

I am reaching out to you to trust in me and know that I have been through this too. Nothing is too taboo, scary or challenging to me. God gave me these trials so that I can give you the compassion of someone who has suffered through them.

Together we can do this and you are not alone through these uneasy scary times.

Many blessings,
