    My first update since starting Kalydeco

    Jessy, That's wonderful! Does your insurance cover the Kalydeco? I would be up my insurance co butt if they did not cover a bronchodilator for my child with CF. That makes absolutely NO sense and makes me very angry for you. However, I am so glad you are doing well!

    High Calorie Snacks

    Liza, We get the Myoplex Chocolate Chocolate chip. They are Yummy! And filling. My daughter can only eat 1/2 a bar at a time. We cut it in half and save the other half for the next day.

    ataluren

    And also, thank you so much to those individuals who took time to participate in the trial. My daughter has had Cf progression these past years and we need something to intervene.

    ataluren

    My daughter is W1282X and Delta F508. I think they are analyzing the data from the ataluren clinical trial. Hoping the information will be released soon; I wonder if it will be at the next CF conference in the fall or for the spring thoracic conference. No facts here; just wondering aloud.
