I am far from having a long list of followers, a compelling story, or even a pretty-looking blog. It makes what I wanna write about today feel silly since I don't have the readership to spread any kind of message. However, reading other people's stories is what brought me to want to write about my own, and fuels my passion to make something of my life and so here it is. Sometimes I just have to sit back and look around instead of at myself for a change.
I think most Cf'ers have at least heard about the documentary that came out months ago (at a film festival or two that I don't remember the name of) called 65 red roses. I have yet to see it, but it is apparently airing on CBC Newsworld on the 16th of this month and I'm looking forward to it. Eva Markvoort's blog is one that I only recently started glancing at thanks to another popular CF blog, CFhusband.blogspot.com. She is the star of the documentary.
It just so happens, that Eva is now experiencing chronic rejection of her so publicly-received lungs and is waiting for another pair, with little time on her side. I find this so poetic, that at such a late stage in this woman's next chapter of battles, her documentary will air to an even larger audience. Check out her blog at 65redroses.livejournal.com as she struggles with less than 20% lung function... yet again.
