Jess, I am so sorry for your loss. I found Allan's strength and character inspiring. He was a man of integrity. You are in my thoughts. Rob

Im not Dr Taylor, but I have run a marathon. However, although I do have CF I dont know what my pfts are. I am lucky enough that I am in very good health and I guess its because I have a mild case of CF. I therefore tend to compare myself, in terms of my health and fitness, to my friends and...

Well Amy, if your mum is a carrier and has a child with someone there is a 1% (1/100) chance of the child having CF. As there is a 1/25 chance of your stepdad being a carrier, and then a 1/4 percent chance of the child having CF from 2 CF carriers, multiply those figures and you've got 1/100...

Jennifer, you rock! You are right, Emily is one of the most caring and understanding people on this site, and yet she is acting more Christian than some of the Christians on here. Sorry If Im just repeating what you said, but its in my own words now!!! I really dislike the pressure you are...

Thanks Caro, I'll be looking forward to it. From 'you know who'!

Yeah, here in England we have free health-care as well. We pay for prescriptions but they are a fixed rate of a few pounds each time. Being a student (still!!) mine are covered. But yeah, this is similar to the Canadian system it seems, where we pay more tax on everything, but then I think its...

Thanks for the reply WinAce. You always write insightfully, and I accept your critique of my response. Im sorry if you think I was being unhelpful, but from my experience with people/friends who suffer from depression, a good slap on the face with reality can help. Some people just don't...

You wrote: <blockquote>Quote<br><hr>Its a pity its all gone and I can do nothing, but dont expect me at anytime to blame myself because I dont control my fate.<hr></blockquote> Im sorry, but that is bulls**t!! I really have no time for negative people. You are negative, not because of the...

Great responses guys... Rob 24 wcf

Whats the other board called? I'll check it out. Rob 24 wcf

I like this... Biggest accomplishment: Running the London Marathon in April... and actually being pissed off not getting under 4 hours and deciding to run at least 2 more so that I achieve my goal!!!! Oh, and Claudette, I was also one of the shortest kids in my class for most of childhood... and...

Yes, I agree. We all sign in on the CF Trust forum and I think its much more open and constructive. People should take responsibility for their words. Rob 24 wcf

Sure, anytime! Right, I'm off to bed. It's 12.30 here in England! Rob 24 wcf

Seana, I have to say, I thought your original message was very heartfelt and genuine. As an adult with CF I was touched by your words and pictured my own mother facing similar challenges that you went through. Thank you for posting, and please don't get discouraged by the negativity that is...

This is absolutely sickening. And the worst thing about this whole charade is that the 'anonymous' boyfriend is clearly the actual girlfriend (jennaxox) herself. They are one and the same. Check the way they write, its identical. Jenna I feel great sorrow for you. You obviously reached the...

To the last anonymous poster: Thank you offering your help! But how can I ask you to help when you don't leave your name! hah! Rob 24 wcf

Wow, this is a crazy story. Ive got to agree with Jared on this one. It all sounds a little far-fetched to me. Firstly, I cant believe you smoke if your gf has cf. Thats just insane and totally selfish. Even if you dont smoke around her, its the principle of it all. Also, why are you still...

I was curious to know where Dr Lee was. I thought he would be on this forum, particularly this category, answering our questions or at least responding to some of our comments and forum threads. Is he sleeping? Wake up Dr Lee!!Rob 24 wcf

Awesome. Thanks! I'll check it out. I got in touch with a lady called Tracey Richardson who is from NZ. Her kids both have CF and shes a Ironman (woman) triathlete! Nice, eh!? Shes raised loads of dosh... certainly something to aspire to. Rob 24 wcf
