This is a bit similar to a documentary I still watch to this day if I feel I need a bit of inspiration to push through something difficult that's happening in my own life as I absolutely adored her, BBC three Love on the transplant list the story of Kirstie Tancock born with CF the story was the build up to her wedding when her lungs were failing and she was on constant oxygen and in a wheelchair as walking took to much out of her, she was determined to live despite being on end of life care then after her wedding to Stu she gets the news that some donor lungs had been found, it then charts her transplant recovery and by the end she's well, running around the fields with her dog and able to live as normal young woman.

After the doc aired I started to follow her on Instagram she was doing great for years then she started getting signs of rejection, she stayed so strong but knew the worst was happening then out of nowhere doctors said it was a long shot but she could try for a second transplant which I think is very rare and it happend for her she became X2 lung transplant survivor

Again all was well for Kirstie she was doing pole fitness teaching and living to the full with her husband, dog and family and then the second set of lungs began to slowly fail, this time there was no more the specialist could do but she just kept living to the full. When it was announced she had died I was heartbroken i can't explain how someone I never met could be so inspiring but she just did and still does as a grainy version of the doc is still there on YouTube and I regularly give it watch or think what would Kirstie do if I'm struggling with life 🦋
I knew her on FB, she was absolutely amazing.
