My daughter has just turned 9 and we haven't told her that CF is terminal. We are going to tell after her party and when she is out of school. I know that I should have told her by now but, I can't seem to find the words, moment, and the guts to tell her. She is a striaght A student and very smart(no common sense) but I have shielded her from too much now its kickin my own ass for not telling her sooner. I am waiting until school is through so if she has problems we can deal with them over the summer. I need to know how--how can I tell the love of my life that this disease can kill her if she is not and does not take care of herself. She is very healthy compared to some she just knows she gets sick easier and she has to take alot of medicine to stay well. Please help without too much harping on me about what I should have done. I've done it enough to myself without any help from anyone else
