    My son is a 19 yo with CF. He got a feeding tube when he was 10. At the time, I was reluctant to do it. I gave him every supplement I could think of and kept hoping they would help. But his little body was working so hard to maintain the basics, that he just couldn't pull up out of it...

    I need the drugs, but do I have to stay?!

    Jeana, We live close to 4 hours away from our CF center, so I understand how you feel about the inconvenience of being away from family. We always had to stay several days, then they let us go home and I took care of Brady. During one of our stays for IV antibiotic I asked why we had to stay...
