It was our 7th wedding anniversary on Saturday :-) 7 years seems a long time although we have been together for over 12 years this new year. I thought it would be fun to post some pictures through the years, especially since it has been quite a journey!
2000
Just before we got together, New Year in Edinburgh (andrew doing the 'arm hover' haha!)
2001
Me looking a bit skinny - I think Andrew had to take me home that night as I wasn't well - first of many times having to do that!
2002
My graduation
Andrew kept me sane through the exams - Frances Ann had been very ill in the lead up to my finals and I needed someone to keep me on the right track!

2006
At a friends wedding. I am starting to get quite unwell by this time and was placed on transplant list in May of this year.
2007
London - when I was short listed for CF achiever award
I was really not well that weekend but amazing what plenty of make up can do :-)
2008
Just before my transplant call - and only couple weeks after the false alarm, where they started surgery. Looking surprisingly well (courtesy of steroids) but feeling rather rough!! Andrew had to carry my massive oxygen concentrator into the hotel because I wanted to stay all weekend haha. He also carried my wee cylinders about for me :-)
2008 (few weeks later)
First walk along the corridor post transplant!! An amazing moment!
(ignore the mental hair and dodgy tracksuit!)
2009
Able to enjoy a good party and I think Andrew looks more relaxed!
2010
starting to lose the steroid look and enjoying another party!
2011
Sorrento - up a hill!! Finally getting to go on holidays and enjoy them :-)
....and now to look forward to many more years!!
