Hey guys. I didn't feel right posting this in the Adults section. I am a semi-active member of this board, I check about twice a week and post occasionally. I am not a pillar of information like some other users here, but I do sometimes put in my two cents if I feel I have something important to contribute. I am posting because I need some help. My health is gradually worsening and I've been having a really hard time coping, as is my fiance. We live about 1,200 miles from any of our family members, in a new city where we have few friends. I am not well enough right now to go out and make friends. I am being admitted into my new hospital for the first time today and I am feeling tired, worn out and scared. I am overwhelmed with our new life in a new city and I am too sick to experience much of it right now. I naturally have a lot of fears about my health right now as it's taken a pretty severe turn in the last year or so. I know that a lot of you can relate to the isolation and sadness I am feeling. I would really appriciate this week if someone could take a few minutes out of their day every day and email back and forth with me so that I can vent about CF stuff. I am sure my hospitalization will go smoothly but I am freaked out because none of my family will be there and my fiance isn't very active in my care. If you have time and could possibly be a shoulder for me to lean on, I can't tell you how much I would appriciate just being able to vent right now to someone who understands CF first hand. Private message me and we can exchange email addresses (I don't want spammers to attack either of our email accounts). Thank you in advance.
-Melanie.
