Hi, I am new here. My daughter just turned two in Febuary. She was diagnosed w/ CF as a newborn. How did you get the vest so early? I have been asking for one as my daughter will not sit down long enough for me to use the "manual" chest compression instrument.</end quote></div>

Tell your doctor that the creator of the Vest, Dr. Warwick, recommends them starting at age 1.

You can go to my blog, scroll all the way down to "categories" and click on "Warwick's Letter". Print it out and show it to your doc.

Preventative therapy with CF is what it's all about. As you know, the Vest isn't just a convenience item - it's improved mucus clearance. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I am so glad I shared our good news about the vest! We are very excited about this. It really is nice to come somewhere that you know people understand what you are going through. Cassidie is such a wonderful little girl. She has always taken her enzymes good for us. The first time she cultrued PA last spring we came here for support on how to get a 1yr old to sit still during breathing treatments. She did awesome with that too. I know that once we get a routine she will do the vest just as well as she does all her other Meds. She is such and active little girl. She loves to play with her big sister Em! And yes she does have ALOT of hair. Both of our girls do!
As for how we got the vest... At her last Dr.visit her nurse said I think we have a vest that will fit Cassidie. That's all she had to say and we got so excited. It is very small but it also fits Emilie. Emilie tried it on for Cass tonight and had fun singing the ABC's. We are all trying to be very encouraging for Cass because we all know that doing treatments are important to your health. She did manual CPT and it was a struggle to get her to sit still for that sometimes. That is why we just kept asking about the vest.
Now that I know how to post pictures. I have to attach this one I took it today. It is sooo cute!
izemmon, I can't wait to hear how your first vest experiance goes! Thank you all again for your responses! I look forward to getting to know you guys and sharing about things that I know you understand.

Cassidie likes to dress up like Capt'n Willie he is a party pirate that has donated his time to some of our fundraisers for CF!
