Hi, my name is sharon, and I have a son who is 35 with cfrd I'm glad they have a forum that deals with cfer now I will learn more just as james does about his cf, and trust me he has taught me alot sense so long ago things have change when he was little, and I have alot of question that he can't answer but by reading what you all have posted gives me hope, and peace in my heart. So I hope that you good folks can put up with me, for I want to know all I can about cf, well all the new stuff that is, James has brought me up to speed to a part, but there are other things about cf that he can't answer for me. I'm glad to have new friends and I hope you will be a friend indeed.

My goodness--TWO NEW MEMBERS!!!! HA HA--Ronmarum--you piggybacked on the thread!!! <b>So welcome to both of you! </b> This forum has been life-changing for me, and is in my blood now. I have made lifetime friends here, and I can truly say that this site is my <img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0">. I thank God for Jeanne, who started this site. I look forward to getting to know you both!

Andrea, could you add what you wrote to the <b>"who are you"</b> thread at the top of the forum page? It sure helps to go back and review who our new members are!

Sharon, you need to do that too--it's a neat way to keep on top of who you all are. Is James a member? Maybe you should intoduce him to us!!!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

Welcome Andrea!

You have come to the right place to learn more about cf, to receive support, and hope for maintaining and improving your health. My FEV 1 had continually been going downhill until I found this website. Now each tome I go for my cf checkup my FEV 1 has been slowly increasing all due to the knowledge I have gained here and incorporated into my daily routine.
This website will open up a whole new chapter in your life especially as there are so many wonderful people who are part of this cf community that generously share their experiences and themselves openly and honestly. Looking forward to reading your posts...see you around the forum.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

<b>Welcome to you too Sharon</b>. I am happy you found this forum. There are a lot of good moms here (dad's too and grandparents!) that you can get some awesome advice and support from. Looking forward to reading your thoughts and comments and any questions you might have.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

Welcome!

You will find many "oldies" here and also on the cystic-L list as well -- I just did a roll call of "older adults" and found there are many in their 30's through 60's with the oldest, Hal Soloff at age 76 !

I agree with Jem that it can improve your PFT's by being here - learning about more things, or becoming more proactive and asking more questions of your doctors and learning from other people's experiences of what might work better for you.
