I think you guys (both sides) need to take a chill pill.
Either go have an ice cold beer, smoke a joint, eat some killer chocolate (or other comfort food), watch a cool light hearted movie or whatever. I come from places on the internet where they wish death to your whole family via burning alive or even worse, and that's just friendly conversation. Be thankful that this place is filled with real nice people in comparison.

BTW Vampy I saw that pic, and thought i'd photoshop something funny in the direction that you are looking for a few laughs. But then I remembered I don't have PS on this machine, then I scratched myself and lost all initiative <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">

"The purpose of life isn't to arrive at the grave safely,in a well preserved body-rather-to skid in sideways all worn out and used up-a bottle of Chardonnay in one hand and a box of chocolates in the other.Screaming "What a Ride""-Steve Fosset, 3-3-05
"Life is truly a ride. We're all strapped in and no one can stop it. When the doctor slaps your behind, he's ripping your ticket and away you go. As you make each passage from youth to adulthood to maturity, sometimes you put your arms up and scream, sometimes you just hang on to that bar in front of you. But the ride is the thing. I think the most you can hope for at the end of life is that your hair's messed, you're out of breath, and you didn't throw up." - Jerry Seinfeld in 'Seinlanguage'
"Live each day on this rock as if it's your last, carry your own baggage, and be cool to others because you don't know whats in their bag." -- A friend

Oh boy...I suppose I'm another 'negative nancy' here. Look. Death happens. You can't stop it, you can't hide from it, and trying to will get you nowhere. I will say that certain topics about death are downheartening and/or annoying, like people who whine about it constantly. But to be honest, I have yet to see that type of thing on this site. Just because there are topics about death on here doesn't mean that we're all negative and depressed. It means we're talking about it because its a relevant topic related to CF (actually, its related to life in general, but for the sake of this topic...) When you have a disease like this, death crosses your mind a lot. Its nice to be able to talk about it. I hate being labled as 'negative' because I say the word 'death'. Like someone else said, I have to put up with the 'god will heal you' BS, so I guess we all sacrifice something. If you don't like reading about death, simple solution...don't. Not to be mean, but there are plenty of other topics on this site to occupy your time.

Well, they say if something makes some people feel one way and other people the exact opposite, it must be doing something right. A few weeks ago I was telling someone at work that I needed to stop participating in this forum because I couldn't stand how "happy" and "positive" everyone is, talking about CF as a "gift" and acting as if it's no big deal. Personally, if my CF is a gift, I want to return it for a full refund!! So, I took a few weeks break from reading the posts, and now that I've started reading again I find that several readers think people are too negative. I think it just goes to show us that the forum is a perfect place for everyone to express ALL of their feelings, both positive and negative. I've lived a very long life with CF, and I've had my great days and my dark days. This is the hand I've been dealt, and I'm doing the best I can to take care of myself and lead a fabulous life. I want to read and talk about it all - the joys, the fears, being sick, finding new treatments, living and dying. If I don't want to read about a topic, I can just scroll down the page. I just celebrated my 54th birthday, and the best I can figure is that my longevity is due to a mixture of care, caution, determination, and luck.
