I’m a LVAD heart warrior waiting for a new heart. I’m a pagan and aspiring traveler who loves music, singing, dancing, art, my husband and my dog. Currently working on learning four languages hoping that one day I might be a polyglot. ❤️
Went to the coast with some amazing women in my family—my mom, sister, aunts, and cousins. We laughed, cried a little, celebrated two brides-to-be, saw whales, fawns, surfers, and a seagull who visited daily. So grateful for these wonderful ladies and such a beautiful weekend together!

Counting the minutes until we’re off work and get to head out camping for the weekend again!

Countdown continues…
Days 24-26 on the Heart Transplant list!

Went camping this weekend and tested out all our new stuff. Had a wonderful time. Lovely campfires, delicious food, and connecting with nature. I’m already eager for our next camping trip.

Day 16 on the Heart Transplant list!

Can’t be more than 5 hrs from my hospital while listed. We got everything we need, including a satellite phone, to start tent camping again and do some dispersed camping.

I may not be able to travel far but that doesn’t mean we can’t have adventures. 🏕️

Had my final procedure for my heart transplant evaluation done today. Everything went great! They are presenting my case to the committee again on Wednesday. ❤️🤞🏻

We should remember the Carnation Revolution. The constitution should still matter and it’s what our military is meant to protect.

Did my nails fresh again last night. Almost ready to head to dinner, just another hour. ❤️

Got my free birthday coffee omnomnom

As most people enjoy doing the day before their birthday I spent the morn at the DMV renewing my license. However, it was lovely seeing how much I’ve changed in my photo. Now we’re headed to the store to get stuff to make appetizers today and prepare for a Resident Evil movie marathon today. ❤️

Tonight’s birthday lead up event was drinks and comedy show of Jimmy Carr! Was a fantastic show! Had such a great time!

Next step to my birthday is new ink ❤️

Today we went for a drive and then grabbed some lunch and went to the park to enjoy. Ripley only had eyes for the chicken. ❤️

New hair refresh with silver tinsel!

If these updates bore you I have bad news about my posts for the next week 😂

Next step leading up to my birthday… did my own nails in a new shiny reddish purple polish.

Step two leading up to my birthday. Lashes with some purple flare! 😍💜

My birthday is still 2 weeks away but today was step one leading up to it. First the movie (Final Destination Bloodlines) and then a pedicure. ❤️ #FeetForFree 😂

April 3rd I’m scheduled to get a robotic laparoscopic total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy. It can’t happen fast enough. Transplant listing is delayed until this is done and I’ve recovered. After the last 98 days, two trips to the ER and no answers I am sooo ready to evict this uterus!

I have to say that I love Progressive. They’ve always been good to us. Just cut us a check for the Explorer and it ended up being more than we expected. Not even a week and it’s all resolved. Have the rental for a month while we get me a different car. Been a roller coaster of emotions this week ❤️

Transplant Eval Day 2:

All my tests and imaging look great! Just waiting on two important antibody tests, which take about a week. Once those are back, my case goes to the transplant committee, then insurance approval. Hoping to be officially listed by the end of this month or early next!

Said goodbye to my Explorer yesterday. Insurance is going to total it out. Waiting for the settlement and then off to find a different car. I didn’t expect to feel so emotional over a car but I really loved her. So long friend. 😢

Nothing like waking up to your car door window broken out and the fuse box fucked up. Seems someone tried to steal the Explorer and failed in the end. It’s not drivable now. Cops advised us to remove our Ally, BLM and Pagan stickers from the vehicles in case that is why we were targeted.

Right heart cath went great. My pressures are right where they want to see them. Although they said I’m still running dehydrated so I need to drink even more water.

Here is an X-ray from the procedure that shows my LVAD, ICD and my sternal wires. The little round thing is a button on my gown

Just got done with my CT scans and all prepped for my right heart cath.
January 30, 2025 at 4:45 PM
Just had my blood draw, 29 vials. They said there would have been 10 more vials but those tests were done before my LVAD so they didn't have to repeat them. Next up today is my echo.
