Tonya, it a big relief to find someone with such similar views and habits. CF is like a fingerprint, everyone is so different! I'd love to hear how things go with Andrew. I still do the sterilizing, and as you say, baby steps. With homework, activities outside of school, and friends and family stuff on top of the extra duties a child with CF has, it's a bit much. Sooner or later it'll all be theirs to do, I guess the steps come when it feels right.

JackieAnn, I've been thinking about the administration side of it all recently and how soon is a good time to get my daughter aware of this stuff. I'm glad you brought it up as something important to be ready for. She's not in highschool yet, but I suppose then would be a good time to start introducing some of the logistics. It makes me feel like I ought to be more organized so that if she starts to take over some of it, it will be clear. I've been doing it myself for so long, even my husband wouldn't know what to do!
