Well first of all......Welcome. I am sorry that daughter had such a rough start in life, but at least now you have a dx & hopefully can level out her health a bit. CF treatments are aggressive & they need to be. The less damage that U can prevent the better for her later on in life. Its hard to think that far ahead when U are faced with such a daily ritual, but it is just as important to think about the affects on her adult life as it is her childhood. My parents were not strict with me doing my treatments as a kid. I wasnt dx until I was 7 & for the most part didnt do much treatments. Took my enzymes faithfully since the belly problem is what led to the dx, but the rest I didnt do much. I ended up in the hospital occasionally, did my time there, came home & went on with life. No big deal....until I got older & I didnt bounce back like I use to. Never having the discipline instilled in me made it very rough as an adult. After my daughter was born & I had some real rough times you would have thought I would have gotten better....only until I was feeling better than I slacked off again. Until last year when things went haywire for no "known" reason & I just couldnt bounce back. It has been a year of hell & learning the hard way that if I slack off I pay.....its no longer a game & yes I might have ended up with the problems anyway, but not being able to go back in time I will never know for sure. I have been suggesting this idea a lot to the parents of newly dx kids....keep a log of ????, concerns etc & then right down the answers or findings in the same log. It will come in handy. There is a lot to retain & I dont care how good of a memory U have, at some point you will forget things. This is a handy tool to have. I started using one last year because I couldnt keep track. In the meantime Chin up & we are here for you to vent, ask ???, get opinions or just chat!
