Hi Friends,It’s a powerful blue moon!  🌕 Transition day! Noelle has left Pacifica, where she has been recovering.  It’s a great day to share an update, as it’s the 8-week mark since her bilateral lung transplant!Overall, she’s doing really well! Transplant recovery is a slow and challenging process. It’s a full-time job! She’s still making regular trips for labs, testing, and appointments. Everyone’s journey is different, and Noelle has had her ups and downs along the way. But there are also real victories worth celebrating. This past week, she walked over 11,000 steps—more than 5 miles! Every week she gets a little stronger, even as she learns that healing is not a straight line.I know many of you have supported Noelle through donations, cards, care packages, prayers, and messages of encouragement. Please know that your kindness has meant more than words can express. It has carried her through some very difficult days.The journey isn’t over yet. Noelle has just moved back home today, which is exciting but also brings new challenges as she continues to heal. There are still ongoing medical expenses and fundraising needs, and her long-term recovery timeline remains uncertain.If you’re able, please consider sharing her story and fundraising page with others. Every share helps expand the circle of support around her.Thank you for continuing to walk alongside Noelle during this remarkable journey. Your love, generosity, and encouragement truly make a difference.I'm so grateful to be sharing this milestone with Noelle today!With full (blue) moon blessings,Wendy

Health Update on Noelle: HealingNoelle is now nearly two weeks out from her bilateral lung transplant, and in so many ways, she is doing remarkably well. We are deeply grateful for the progress she’s made and the strength she continues to show each day.At the same time, we want to be real about what this journey looks like. Recovery from a surgery of this magnitude is not linear. There are good days that feel encouraging, and there are harder days that can feel like two steps back, one step forward. It is, at times, painful, exhausting, and overwhelming.Noelle is facing it all with incredible focus and determination. Right now, her entire world is centered on healing—breath by breath, step by step. She is committed, resilient, and doing the hard work this recovery requires.She also wants everyone to know how deeply she feels the love and support surrounding her. Every message, prayer, and act of kindness has mattered more than we can express. She knows, without a doubt, that she would not be getting through this without all of you. She cannot have flowers or plants, but cards and pictures are welcome. She's not discharged yet from the hospital, but hopefully in the next few days. DM for address.This is a long road, and we are in the early stages. But there is real progress, real hope, and a fierce spirit carrying her forward.Thank you for continuing to walk alongside her. 🙏🏻❤️‍🩹🌹
