Hey AR,
I do not have CF, but had two sisters with CF. The fact that you are attending college and you have parents who support you is a blessing. Does it really matter when you graduate? I hope not. Not being an individual with CF, I can not feel the emotions or concerns you do. I do however know how my little sister Jeri-Alice felt just being able to attend college. She however was required to take a full load just to keep her insurance. Please be greatfull that you are not in this situation and are able to take a course load that works for your lifestyle. I mayself have returned to college after originally taking 7 years to complete my first degree. I AM NOT A DR. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">No health problems here. Just wanted to take it slow. Or maybe I was lazy who knows. So, be happy for your friends who are able to graduate but also be happy that your health is allowing you to follow your dreams and eventually graduate.
Good luck with college!!!!!!!!! Enjoy every minute of it!

Don't be worried about graduating in 4 years. It's definetly possible but I went into college thinking it may take me longer. I've been in 4.5 years now and have had to put classes on hold until after transplant. It's not the end of the world, but I do wish my path couldve been more aligned with others. Make your own path and take it easy. Enjoy college, because it'll go by too fast! I took 4 classes usuallu up until my senior year when I cut back to 3, then 1. I did summer as well, just one class but it was enough!
