A little about us...

My name is Ryan and my wife's name is Amanda. We are just two people with a lot in common that fell in love. Just so happens that one of those commonalities is Cystic Fibrosis (CF). We are breaking all the rules with being together, but love knows no boundaries.

Amanda and I met a few years ago at a CF walk kick-off event. Who knew our path's would cross again.

I was going through a rough time in January 2012, and a friend of ours mentioned to Amanda that I might need someone to talk to. Being the caring person she was, she contacted me to talk. We had an instant connection. She had previously gone through what I was going through, and was there to lend an ear. We started talking more frequently and feelings started developing. When we saw each other, there was a feeling that we had never felt before, almost like in the movies, love at "first" sight. Our friendship was stronger than ever and with feelings developing stronger and stronger every day, we decided that we had to make a hard decision. Being that we both had CF we had to decide where this relationship was going, did we want to take it to the next level, or was it going to end at just being friends. After a little time we both decided we were ready to take it to the next level. There was no turning back. We were in love, and took our last first kiss.

Testing Waters

Well, I've decided to start a blog, not sure where it will go, but here goes nothing.

I am not sure what to blog about, or where to start, so I will start with an overview of the day and go from there.

I woke up at 6:25am to start my treatments and get ready for the day. I had to be at work early to open for a change. The mold allergies were bad due to the storm from yesterday, and after looking at the sky it did not look to be much better today.

The allergies were bad so starting off the day wasn't easy. My nose was stuffed up, I had sinus pressure, and my asthma kicked in. When I got to work, I immediately started sneezing, oh this can't be good. Between sneezing and being congested I somehow managed to do alright running the front desk.

When lunch rolled around I came home to eat and do a treatment. My lungs were tight, it was hard to breathe. I luckily had an appetite and was able to eat a sandwich and some chips. Did my albuterol treatment and back to work I went.

The afternoon went by fast, so it wasn't too bad. Around the time to leave it started raining. Luckily by the time I walked out the door it stopped, no getting soaked for me.

To sum things up, it was an alright day, even though the stress is building since I am going in for a tune-up next week.
