    Getting very down about transplant

    Deanna, I just wanted to say that that was a beautiful post. I feel the exact same way -- there are lungs for me out there, and they will come on the perfect day at the right time. It's how I got through 2 dry runs as well, just thinking that those must not have been "my" lungs. Busbie, you're...

    Can anyone translate doctor speak?

    I'm sure everyone knows this already, but negative cultures don't mean that bacteria is gone, necessarily. A bronch is a better (albeit risky) way to check, but even then the bacteria can sometimes "hide" in a part of the lungs that doesn't really get sampled. It's really tough to eradicate PA...

    Mediport for my 14 year old - should we do it?

    I got my first port when I was 18. I was a competitive horseback rider and very very active, plus I was moving away to college.

    Words from One CF Mom to Others

    Hi everyone, I debated on whether or not to post this here, and I hope no one feels that it's inappropriate, but my mother wrote what I think is a FABULOUS guest post on my blog about her experience as a CF mom for 28+ years and all those dreaded "CF Milestones." I just wanted to post the link...
