Hi everyone, I am currently a Child life intern in WA. I am working on my intern project and wanted to focus on teenagers who are critically ill and Cystic Fibrosis came to mind.

so if you don't mind could you please reply to some questions or just give me some advice or thoughts. i won't use any names in my project and it will remain confidential. I would just like to create some sort of resource for teens here who are strugglin with this.

What motivates you to continue with your treatment and keep your spirits up? Is there anything that child life does or can do to help you?

what helps you get through?

thank you so much and once again, please feel free to add anything you feel would be important.

I hope you get the feedback you need. My daughter has CF, but she's two, so I'm afraid she won't be much help. I just wanted to thank you for your interest in CF for your project. The Child Life Specialists were really great when my daughter was diagnosed after being admitted to the hospital. They helped us explain to our then 5 year old what was going on with his little sister. Even though he was not the one who was sick, it was still very scary for him, and they were able to put him more at ease.
So, good luck with your project, you've made an excellent career choice.

You might get responses if you re-post in the adult section. There are many young adults who can answer "retrospectively" and, some of our younger members may be more likely to see it there, too.

Good luck!
