On September 12th 2014, Sarah my wife received a double lung transplant. She had a tough start to transplanted life, spending 7 weeks in intensive care followed by another 9 weeks still on a ward in the transplant unit at the freeman hospital. After a lot of hard work from sarah and the transplant team she was doing really well and loving life again, and most importantly breathing easy for the first time in over a decade. Sarah was born with cystic fibrosis and had to fight constantly her whole life just to do the things we take for granted. Never once would she ever complain and showed the strength and determination I could only dream about, she truly was an amazing person and as hurt as I am now to have lost her, I feel so privileged and honoured that she was my wife, even if it wasn't for as long as we had hoped. Back in May, Sarah's body started to reject her donated lungs, and she quickly became poorly again and on the 28th July 2015 my little princess sadly lost her battle and passed away. I am raising money for the freeman heart and lung transplant association in her memory because the work they do in helping transplant patients and their families is amazing, whether it's buying things for the transplant unit to make long hospital stays more comfortable or organising the fantastic transplant games to get patients out and about and back into normal life, they truly put their heart and souls into everything they do.
