Yes, I just wanted to reiterate that living on or near a lake would be good for him.
Physical exercise is the best! It keeps the mucous moving out! And all that clean country air is the best thing for him.

Best to you. You will find alot of helpful advice and friends to talk to on this website. We're all rooting for you!

I replied to your PM. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> One of the things I said in there, I was dx at 2 days old, for the same reason as you. Meconium ileus.

As for lifespans of those on here who are living older, my best guess (and I imagine it's not far off) is that a lot of those people had mild CF, at least for a good portion of their lives. Those who had more average CF and were born 40-50 years ago are long gone. But I'm sure some of them can answer for you better than I can, given that I'm not one of them. <img src="i/expressions/angel_ani.gif" border="0">
