A CF Reality

Last night at 8:00 p.m., a small, sweet, adorable 7 year old boy named Garren, received a double lung transplant. He has Cystic Fibrosis. His lungs were almost useless....he had to have a transplant. He has been on the waiting list for 6 months. A double edged sword this is. We are grateful, excited and blessed that Garren gets a new chance at life.....we all know it is also a sad day...for the family that lost their child.
I met Garren and his mom (Victoria) in 2006 when I joined cysticfibrosis.com (my main support group). We call him G-man on the site! :) He is a trooper!
Please visit his caring bridge site http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/gmantxfund, say a prayer for him and his family.

  1. Amen to that Jada. The G-Man has become a hero in his own rights. So much in such a short life. Prayers continue for his family & him.....this endeavor has just began!

  2. He is an inspiration-- just a determination to fight.

    We are continuing to pray.
