    Frame of mind and CF condition

    Ok. Nothing very scientific, and I don't want to go off on another associated tangent (intention) like I have in the past, and upset some people here (one really). But I was curious. How do you feel your current frame of mind has a relation to your subsequent (following) health level? Here is...

    Time to update my vest

    I have an ancient hill rom vest that just sits there as an old emergency backup. That one doesn't even have the pressure control, it was the very first one available to us...I got it when I was like 19 or something (i'm 37 now). I'm not even sure if that one is hill-rom, it says "American...

    A hard decision on my end

    Ok here is the story in a nuttshell, I will try and keep it as short as possible and get the main situation across. HISTORY: I had been on disability for a very long time. My exact disability is SSDI through my father (he died before he retired/collected). I have been on that for many years...

    Intention

    I have always been fascinated by the power of thought, and how it possibly relates to our bodies, others, and the real world environment. I'm not sure if you guys are aware of this, but there have been hundreds, if not thousands of experiments done by respected universities and researchers...

    Goodbye

    Ok I have had enough. Several times a week I work very hard at microwaving queso and salsa in a bowl to eat with tortilla chips. I come here while I eat those chips to share stories about rehabilitated eagles, a guy growing back a finger with "pixie dust", hyper evolution of lizards on a remote...

    The Brick

    (This is a too bit religious for me, but I like the overall message. I left out some of the more cute but very religious tones added to the story, and just kept the main story, which I feel is a message we all need drilled into our heads) THE BRICK A young and successful executive was...

    We nearly bought the farm...Permanently

    Very cool read on genetics, and how the human race nearly went extinct. I have read other accounts where a handful of times our population had gotten so low, we almost went extinct. Could it have really been a bad thing? <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge...

    Probably the most disturbing thing I have ever read

    I read this off another board. Regardless what your views on abortion are, this is so gross it makes me want to personally shoot this ho. I'm only posting this because I am just in awe. <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.yaledailynews.com/articles/view/24513...

    Determination,adversity, discipline pays off

    (bear with me, it might be a long read, but i'm sure there is something in here that will benefit you) Let me start by saying, aside from being killed by this disease, and maybe a few other weird aspects, I have been through most everything all other CF's have been through. From double...

    At 5:33 PM this day of April 8th, in the year 2008

    It will be 37 years I have been on this earth, circling the sun. I was born April 8th, 1971. Wow what a ride. I've encountered many CF patients both virtually and in real life. Many are regrettably no longer with us. Nearly all of those I knew in real life from my early years are gone. What a...

    Heh dudes in New Jersey don't believe dudes in Florida

    So my hypertonic saline (3 firm shell bags, not like soft IV bags, no tubing) show up from the compounding pharmacy I get them from in New Jersey. I open the package (not damaged at all) which is a sturdy outer hard shell package, with a large, thick Styrofoam cooler inside (not damaged either)...
