I saw in story on the DC channel 9 news about a teen w/ cf awaiting his second lung transplant. It's a good story and you can watch it on the net.

Here's the link. Visit Pete's website to and give him an encouraging message. I think he may get the transplant very soon.

I'm glad Pete got his chance for a new start. I lost my daughter 3 weeks ago from CF. She never even made it for the consulation phase for a transplant. How's Pete doing today?

Hey everyone-

As a family friend of Petes, he is very good friends with my younger brother, I wanted to thank you all for your kind thoughts and to let you all know that Pete is doing really well, eating and talking, and can't wait to get out of the hospital. Keep those good thoughts coming! Thanks again.
