    Roll Call Please Respond

    I'm Coll, 16 wcf. I'm a junior in high school, and I live with my mom-- just the two of us, which is nice.

    Night Owls

    I also am naturally a night person. In the summer, when I don't have any schedule really, I fall asleep usually around 1 am and sleep until 12 noon. During school though, I sleep on a more normal schedule, but I am definitely a night owl. I had a nurse once say every CF patient she ever had in...

    new baby with cystic fibrosis

    I personally was born by C-Section because of my bowel blockage. Obviously, I wasn't there for the discussion of this while it was happening, but the impression I've gotten from my 'birth story' as I have heard it over the years is that the pressure of natural childbirth would make it more...

    Odd Food Combinations

    I LOOOOVE BEETS JAROD!!! As you know, it not only makes your poop red, it makes your pee red also (for me at least). Once, when I was in the hospital and they were watching my urine output, I had had beet salad the night before and my pee was red. The nurse came in and saw it and went to get...

    Coll- g-tube question

    Terri, The Mickey has never leaked for me either- which is nice, since my Bard did leak a but, though it wasn't a daily occurance, but did sometimes happen. So I prefer the Mickey in terms of leakage protection (sounds like diapers haha!). You're right, the Bard does have a lower profile, which...

    gene question...

    Yes, their gene pairing would be the same they have the same gene pairing, so long as they have the same father. But, as Bambi said, the same gene pairings cause smyptoms that vary dramatically person to person.

    Coll- g-tube question

    Actually, up until July I didn't have the Mic-key system as my 'button'.. I had a bard button, which is different in that it has a sort of plastic mushroom cap holding it in as opposed to the balloon of water in a Mic-key. So, when the Mic-key was put in, it was painful because the Bard is never...

    flutter doo dad

    I use the Flutter. It is a learning process when you first get it. When I was last in the hospital, my PT wanted to watch me do the Flutter and make sure it was effective. Even though I felt the 'fluttering' sensation and always expectorated a ton with the FLutter (which I had used for awhile at...
