    Your Identity

    I agree as well. I am so much more than a person with CF and it certainly doesn't define me. Some people, it seems, have quite a bit of self esteem issues, or perhaps feel that they don't get enough attention. These people will use almost anything to get people to smother them in pity and...

    Recurrent Pink Eye

    I agree with Melissa, contacts are the #1 culprit in bacterial conjunctivitis. If you don't wear contacts, try to pay attention to how much you rub your eyes and things like that.
