    How would I get six pack abs?

    How open are you about CF?

    Honestly, I would go as far as to say: "CF = AIDS", limited to the extent of the social stigma. I HATED that my mother would tell everyone; as a child I was never treated "normal". I was never allowed to participate in any activity due to ignorance and fear. Yes, I am "in the closet" about my...
