    Help me out Cfers...and non Cfers....UPDATED!

    RE: Help me out Cfers...and non Cfers.... You dont necessarily have to tell a story about yourself do you??? You can tell a story about others worse then you. Maybe show a few pictures, (feeding tubes,ect...) Tell why their money is needed because of how close we are to finding a cure.

    my strangest question yet!

    I dont know what I would trade for CF. This is hard. I guess if I had to choose, it would be the use of my legs. Why? Because then I would have an excuse as to why Im lazy at times. I could have people wait on me, hand and foot. It would be a lot better then wondering if Im going to die soon.
