    CF and Divorce

    Unfortunately my husband and I are in the middle of the divorce. We haven't discussed custody issues, because I'm not sure how to share custody with all of Addie's equipment (g-tube, vest, nebs, meds, etc). How in the world do people pack up everything for just a day or two with the other...

    Rebecca, Oh my you have been through a lot the last few months! I'm glad you found this site, it will help immensely. Just knowing that others are in the same boat, makes the world feel a little smaller and CF less frightening. I hope your girl continues to thrive. Take care. Elise

    G-tube - popping out!

    Harriett, Sorry for the confusion...she wasn't getting a feed. I just had the adaptor in, because we had just finished meds. I should have removed it before the shaky vest, because it isn't as secure as her coreflo. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

    G-tube - popping out!

    Hi mamas, Well I think we found a solution. They gave us a new adaptor that fits better and so far we only had one little blow out - my fault. I didn't tape her up while doing treatment, and she pulled her vest tubes out and it tugged on the tube, opening up her port. Gross. Not a great way to...

    G-tube - popping out!

    My kiddo had her peg-pull yesterday and was fitted with a 20French coreflo. We have a Kangaroo Joey pump and I can't seem to get the coreflo to fit the tubing for the 1000ml bag. We have a Y adaptor and that doesn't seem to help either. It's like the adaptor and tubing from the pump are spring...

    Okay, almost in tears-frustrated

    My daughter cultured it twice and has been pseudomonas free for a year now! We did Cipro for 14 days and a year of Tobi each time she cultured. Tobi was 2 months on, then one month on/off for a year. Good luck. Don't get too discouraged. Plus there are new inhaled antibiotics in the pipeline...

    G-tube covering for swimming?

    Thanks everyone! We were supposed to get the mic-key in June, but there are no appointments available with our GI doc before July to do the peg pull, which is why it's taking so long. And I don't want a Fellow doing her peg pull, so I guess we'll just have to wait for our doc.
