PICC Free

Hello, Just wanted to write a quick update.  I am officially PICC free :) Last week Tuesday I got my IV taken out when I went to the doctor for my follow up visit.  My PFT's were back to my normal which is 95%.  Which is very good. I was proud of myself.
When I went to the doctor last Tuesday it was the first time in my 17 3/4 years (yes technical) of being alive that my dad took me to the doctor. (For those of you who don't know my dad, he is not one bit fond of IV, needles, blood, hospitals etc..) but I must say he did GREAT! He didn't get woozy or light headed :) I am very impressed. Then after the first stop we made---STARBUCKS! I love me a good salted caramel mocha this time of year :)  Then we went out for lunch/supper at Noodles and Company.  I kinda like dad/me days! Anyways there's not much that i know. Oh, on October 24th I have my CF annual studies which include glucose test, dexa scan, and Xray. Not to bad. Then I go back for my doctor appt. on November 1st.  We're trying to get all these appointments in before I turn 18-which is November 12th. So here are just a couple recent pictures. Enjoy!

Off I go this early morning to go dog sit for a wonderful friend-who is someone I call my "adopted grandparents" I just love her and her husband. They're the best! And their dogs are so cute and I just love them all ;)

Have a great day! ~God Bless
