yeah. i do. my names Gina, im 15 years old, and i have CF related diabetes. i have to take lantis shots which is like insulin. i was just diagnoste with it this year so its very new to me too. i have to do it every night before i go to sleep.. (can you imagine sticking yourself with a needle when your exhausted? SCAREY lol) i also have to do it for my old sister who also just got it. SHES 18 and shes scared to do it herself! lol.
last i checked i was 75 pounds. i am 3 years older, adn only 10 pounds heavier. =[
i have hope for you though. i didnt get yor name, but ill call you mini. lol.
mini, when mysister was younger than you, she got a feeding tube cause any other way there was no hope. BUT, God didnt think so! a few years later she wanted it out, but the doc's said no. we prayed that somehow she wouldnt need it. so one day shes watching TV and it jsut POPS OUT!! it sounds gross, and ill tell ya it was! BUT, the docs pu one back in, and later that year it did it again!! and it startd to heal itsself!!
ill tell ya now mini, she has a scar from that tube letting ppl knwo that she deff had it, BUT, God said "ya knwo what, tis outta there!" and sure nough' it was!after that. like 5 or so years after she was gaining weight liek any "normal" CFer. not nedding any stupid tube! she was fine until it was only this year that she got diabetes liek i have now.
but mini, thats nto all. i have a whole other LOOOOOOONG story about my sister that shows Gods goodness, but it is just too long. i want you to hear it,but ill have to type it up another time. and ill put it up as a bulliten. I WILL soon enough.
God is so good mini, you have no idea. so ill be praying for you. that you wont need that tube adn that youll be heathy enough to not need it.
