thank you so much for this.


not only are you encouraging to those with CF but for the partners as well.

my fiance will be turning 31 next week. everytime he sees a post like this (or i tell him about them) he looks at me and says "i want to be that person in 20 years"




thank you again

I am a CFer - turned 50 last July - my grandson was born just over a year ago. 50 was a bit of a milestone - but it doesn't slow me down - I have many medical people amazed at my age and health. I keep my grandson during the days when mom and dad are at work; I just got my degree in early childhood education at school; and I stay pretty active. Occasionally a good 2-day sleep does wonders just to recharge. Just did that today and yesterday. I read someone's post somewhere that said their state-of-mind had as much to do with their health as the meds do and I have to agree!! A few years ago I was down to 25% function, was having the "transplant talk" with my doc and was just tired. My sister and nieces came to visit me from Louisiana and i found a second wind. 2 weeks later function was up to 54%!! Your age is nothing but a number - even with CF - keep your mind young - your heart young - and never give in to defeat - you can beat it!!

This thread has made my day! It is so inspiring to see others reaching 50 with this illness. If there is anything I learnt about this illness, is to keep fighting. There will always be bad days, but there are good days as well. It is the good days that we need to hang on to and celebrate.

Have yourself a wonderful birthday!
