Day 138 after transplant ❤️

I’ve watched Staci go through about every version of fighting there is. I watched her act like nothing was wrong and keep pushing through everything. She would say she was fine, keep doing what needed done, and try to live normal even when everybody around her could clearly tell she was struggling.

Then I watched that turn into actually fighting for her life. And I mean fighting through everyday things. Cooking. Walking to another room. Playing with the kids. Taking a shower.
Just getting through the day. There were times she was giving 1,000% just to do things most people never even think twice about.

Now, 138 days after transplant, I get to watch a completely different version of her. She’s w**d eating. Training horses. Learning how to drive a tractor. Cooking her ass off. Cleaning her ass off. Playing with the kids. Wanting learn how to ride a motorcycle. Finding random s**t she wants to try just because now she actually feels good enough to do it.

That’s probably one of the biggest things I’ve noticed through all of this. Before transplant, so much of her life was about pushing through and pretending she was okay.
Now she gets to actually enjoy it. There’s a huge difference between surviving your life and loving your life. And watching Staci finally get to love hers has been one of the best parts of this whole damn journey.

Staci’s Fight was never just about getting a new heart. It was about getting her life back. ❤️

Usually I can let smart remarks roll right off me. Yesterday was not one of those days. 🤣 The babies were absolutely losing their minds in Walmart, I was already on my LAST nerve, and this lady made some comment like:

“That’s funny, people are still afraid of Covid.” And I lost it. I looked at her and said, “I had a heart transplant. You have no idea what you’re talking about.”

Was it my finest moment? Probably not. 😂 Do I regret standing up for myself? Not really. After transplant, being careful about germs isn’t me “being scared.” My immune system is intentionally suppressed so my body doesn’t attack my new heart. So if you see somebody wearing a mask, sanitizing everything, avoiding crowds, or being extra careful, maybe just mind your business. You have absolutely no idea what somebody has survived just to be standing in Walmart with two screaming babies trying to get through the day. 🤣❤️

Some days it still doesn’t feel real.

A few months ago, our whole world revolved around hospital rooms, phone calls, medications, numbers, and waiting for the next update.

Now we’re back to normal life. Kids being loud, schedules being crazy, chores piling up, and all the little things we used to take for granted.

And honestly, that “boring” everyday life means more to us now than it ever did before. ❤️

We’ll never stop being thankful for the second chance Staci was given.

❤️ DAY 129 POST HEART TRANSPLANT ❤️

Figured it was time for a little Staci life update… And really, the best way to explain it is: Staci is LIVING LIFE. She’s out messing with the horses, w**d eating, making sourdough, playing with the kids, working on stuff around the house, and basically doing everything she can possibly find to do.
Does she take it easy like we tell her to?
Absolutely not. 😂
We’ll tell her, “You probably need to slow down.” And apparently what she hears is, “Go find three more things to do.”

But after everything we watched her go through before transplant, seeing her able to be outside, be a mom, make bread, aggravate everybody, and just enjoy normal everyday life is something I’ll never take for granted.

129 days ago she got a second chance at life.

Today she’s actually USING it. ❤️ There are still appointments, medications, precautions, and plenty of things we have to stay on top of, but right now she is doing damn good. And if you’ve followed Staci’s Fight from the beginning, you know just how huge that is. Here’s to more normal days, more memories with the kids, more sourdough than anybody asked for, and hopefully Staci eventually learning what the words “take it easy” mean. 😂❤️
