we have this friend and weve known each other since 6th grade and then out of the blue today she told us she has CF!!!! we had no idea, i mean we knew she coughed a lot and missed a lot of school but she always just said she was sick! its so weird because we never expected her to tell us something like this especially after weve known each other so long! she told us at lunch today and it scared us because she said she is going on a cruise for make a wish!! we thought that was for kids who get to make one last wish before they die!! is it really that bad????? were so scared, and she doesnt really seem to want to talk about it anymore than she already did, so we decided to look up info about it and we found this website. sorry for invading but could you help us? like what are we supposed to do to help her? is she okay??

Make a wish isn't just for people about to die, a lot of people tend to think that though. She will be fine, she's not going to up and die on you soon. Can't really do much to help her, just maybe support her a bit more when she's sick. Also remember not to do something dumb like smoke around her, and if you're walking and she starts coughing you can stop and wait a bit. Don't freak out. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

First, I think it is great that you cared enough to take the time and read up on CF. That is a big step. The severity of CF can vary greatly from person to person. She probably told you because it is becoming harder and harder to keep it from you. It also means she trusts you and considers you her close friends. I would suggest that you let her know you did some research on it but not get into the details. Let her know you are there to support her and if she needs anything you are there. Other than that she will probably give you more details as she is comfortable. If you have any other questions you can always ask people on this site.

Y'all sound like very caring friends. I think its really sweet that y'all took the time to look it up. No your friend isn't just gonna all of a sudden die. Make a wish is an organization for kids with life- threatening illnesses. I am doing the Kid's wish Network right now. If your friend does everything she supposed to(treatments, medicine,chest pt) she will live a long time, so don't worry about it. The best thing you can do is let her know that you read up on and you really do care for her. Always remind her to do her stuff.(believe it or not if my friends would tell me to do my stuff I would) Let her know you are there for her if she ever wants to talk. But other than that treat her like you have been treating her, treat her like your best friend. If you want more info go to cff.org it will tell you more things about CF. hope this helps! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
