I used to be afraid. I lost my older brother to CF when we were kids. He was only 13. I was in fear of my 13th birthday but never spoke to anyone about it. Somehow I had convinced myself that it would all end in my teens. At some point in high school I changed my approach. I stopped...

I'm sorry to hear about your struggles. I've been married for almost 25 years. We have two teenage daughters w/o CF as well. We've had our ups and downs too. Not all of them are CF related. Sometimes you get so caught up in the day to day stuff that you forget that other families have problems...

As you found out from the comments. No one approach works all the time. The most important thing is to make sure he takes them and the older he gets to make it his responsibility. As he ages and meals become less regimented he'll have to learn to adapt. If he is eating on the fly or sitting...

I was diagnosed at age 2 in 1964. I'd tell myself that 2011 is going to happen. A wonderful spouse and 2 great kids are going to happen too. College and a whole bunch of normal stuff too.

I am a 48 year old male with CF. I've been married for almost 25 years. Each one of us and our situations are unique. I have two middle school aged daughters who think I'm a pretty good, cough or no cough, Dad.

I'm a 48 year old cf dad of two girls, 11 and 14. My health has always been pretty good. I'm able to work full time. From the beginning we've been very open with them about the disease. We've addressed all the issues with them that were appropriate for their age at the time. For me they've been...
