I survived another year! | Life with Cystic Fibrosis
I’m 31… 31.
30 was a huge birthday for me, very significant given my expectancy with CF from a young age was 30 or lower, it was a huge reason to celebrate.
But for me personally, 31 feels huge, and I’m guessing every age I reach from this point will feel more significant as they happen. But August last year we sat down and had the talk of what was to come & we estimated 1-2 years given my trajectory at the time, my lung function and weight plummeting at a speedy rate, my body failing me in general, hospital stays every 2-3 weeks up until recently. The admittance from some healthcare professionals that they didn’t think I’d see 6 months…
I have worked SO hard, not just physically but ment...

Return of the Jet | Life with Cystic Fibrosis

I have returned! Sorry for the hiatus again and I am going to try once again to be consistent but I’ve had a few things to deal with and the guilt of not doing much this summer was a lot, something I will touch upon in one of my more informative/sit down chat videos. Thanks for watching and I hope to see you in the comments! Jet xx

So I’ve been pushing the boat out ever so slightly, definitely trying to make sure that my next hospital stay is worth while! Because I’d hate to go back in having done nothing I enjoy going, that’s when resentment creeps in. So keep an eye out for the next vlog early/mid next week for my spontaneous decision making results 🥲😂

It’s been all about cramming as much in as we can before my last hospital stay. It may seem excessive but my mental health during my last stay was not good, it really took a toll on me and I needed to have some sort of life when I returned home and that’s exactly what I’ve done. I had some bigger plans for the next couple of weeks but I’ve been marginally sensible and pulled those back to small...

It’s been a weird couple of weeks but I feel I’m getting back to a better place mentally. It’s been a lot of soul searching and trying to focus on my mental health moving forward because I couldn’t keep talking about my situation as much as I have been due to how mentally draining it was to just keep discussing something I’m so afraid of happening.

    Happy birthday Jet. Just my opinion but I'd take anything the medical profession says with a grain of salt. They treat everyone as a generalisation/stereotype rather than an individual that can have subjective outcomes. You may have touched on this in a previous video and hopefully not too much of a stupid question but Trikafta wasn't an option?

      Hey! So I am very much flying solo right now other than lung medication & IV antibiotics, because NOTHING was improving & heading downwards fast and everyone was shrugging and I was desperate so I made a few decisions against their advice and I’ve managed to keep myself a little more stable, only stable but that’s better than dead! Trikafta is a big no for me, and I don’t say that lightly as it did wonders for my lungs but everything else was deteriorating & I wasn’t leaving the house.

    Hi Jet. Glad you are doing ”okay”& your bike 🏍️🏍️ rides look awesome…but where are your leathers to keep you safe should something untoward happen, heaven forbid of course. That would be the last thing you need. That is one thing I wish I had done before my head got so bad that it would be torture to ride a vibrating, noisy motorcycle rather than pleasure. I have just spent 2 weeks on IVs in my new CF hospital…Royal Devon and Exeter…I haven’t been in hospital in 3.5 years so it was somewhat of a shock when I found myself struggling for breath🫁. I did post a piece (or whatever its called) on my experience and how shit I had felt. I got home on Fri night and have yet to sleep so am shattered. Never had any more than about an hours sleep during the day…so I need sleep!!!💤💤💤 I was pleasantly surprised and delighted with my new CF team as well as the staff on the respiratory ward I was on..always had a smile for me and some really awesome discussions. One of the CF doctors was so funny and immediately put me at ease…for me that is ultra important. Also, the entire team that were seeing me on the ward completely understood how difficult, painful and irritating my head issues are…because they took the time to listen to me. Don’t you agree? And their food was great unlike the crap I got previously. Your brekkies looked awesome and those crabs…wow! I hope you managed to go away and create more memories. Take 1 day at a time, 1 step at a time…,pace yourself.💜💜💜 All the best fellow CF Warrior💜

    I'm so sorry people have judged you so harshly because of not being able to handle this medication! It's awfully sad to me that people are so clueless that they make sweeping assumptions about someone just because they don't know the whole situation, don't walk in your shoes, maybe don't even have CF, or aren't a medical professional who works with those who do. My heart goes out to you. I completely understand why you stopped taking it--both for the TB drug you needed and your own mental health. I just found your videos a bit ago--this is only my second. Thank you for sharing your situation. I'm praying for you, that something can be found to help find an alternative for Kaftrio.

    Have you heard about the gastric pacemaker? I wondered if it might be an option if your bowel motility declines more I have cerebral palsy and have had dismotility for years and had a resection due to blockage about 8 years ago . I wasn’t a candidate for the pacemaker and I am experiencing problems with the remaining bowel I have. I went to a school for children with medical needs. We had several kids with CF and one of my closest friends passed away when she was 13. I am so glad that life expectancy has improved and I was happy and sad about kaftro coming along as I wish that my friends had lived long enough to try it if you had lung transplants some lived a few years and one lived over a decade. I know transplant with CF is very challenging and the experiences I can talk about or from many years ago now. I am about to go and watch your video about Kaftrio as I’ve seen accounts of some people who cannot take it also and I think it was build a miracle for everybody and it must be very difficult in that case. I hope you manage to get the help you need.

    Sleep and nutrition are so important for the body when it is fighting illness, and yet hospitals don't provide it. I also hate the whole 'they're worked off their feet, be patient'. We are prescribed treatments for a reason and when we don't get them on time we are the ones who suffer. I was in hospital for 4 weeks for uncontrolled seizures. For the first 3 weeks they watched me seize and counted how long each lasted. During the last week I actually had tests and started treatment. People say we are fortunate to have the NHS. To a degree perhaps, but negligence is not unheard of. I know with Cystic Fibrosis, unfortunately hospital is a second home for you. I wish that they could make the stay more pleasant and comfortable for you and others who have to spend a lot of time there. I hope you're okay. Is there any talk of a transplant at the moment? much love x
