    To speak of CF or not...

    Well yesterday was the day from hell. Ben is being VERY 2 these days so tantrums and strong headedness abounds. He is just very short tempered right now. So mommy patience is at a minimum and I am fried by the day's end. Thankfully he is my second and I know it will pass. So a bit frazzled...

    Modulating Inflammation

    I attended a seminar about inflammation and the body. It is way to detailed to get into here but the bottom line for anyone trying to maintain a balanced inflammation response in the body it to do it daily through diet and supplementation. In cultures who do not experience diseases as much and...

    Just A Mom

    A few months ago, when I was picking up the children at school, another mother I knew well rushed up to me. Emily was fuming with indignation. "Do you know what you and I are?" she demanded.

    Converting Dairy-based protein drinks...

    I noticed alot of you give Carnation Instant breakfast to your little ones. Since we can not do dairy and I know a few other moms who can't or choose not to, I'd like to see if I can't do a high cal drink or shake from my non-dairy goodies that matches the calorie, protein, fat content of these...

    Another Vest topic

    We got our vest this afternoon. I always think I am ready when we start a new treatment, but of course I wasn't. I brough it in (damn that this is heavy) and my 6 year old (no CF) was all excited. She is running around saying "Ben your jiggle machine is here your jiggle machine is here!" We...
