Dear Stacey, Happy First Anniversary! You have come so far in the past year, and you’ve been through so much. Last Thanksgiving we were so excited that you finally had the transplant, but also very worried about you and about your body’s acceptance of your donor lungs. This Thanksgiving we are thankful again. After your initial setback, you’ve improved steadily and you are slowly getting stronger. I’m so happy to be able to congratulate you on this special day! Lots of love, Denise Denise Wirth, from Riga
