So after four months of committing to an exercise program I have some more positive news. After one month out of the hospital my PFT's went up 10%. Now, three months after that last PFT's my numbers are the same. They haven't declined one bit! That's big news for me cause I generally have a steady decline after leaving the hospital. Here's the link if you want to see the video of me doing my PFT's:

Enjoy! I'm actually going back into the hospital today or tomorrow so I hope to increase my numbers. I will be posting a video blog everyday from the hospital that can be found at my blog.

Hi Ronnie,
I watched your video,, it was great...No matter how gross some people might think sputum looks,,, I'm glad your doing it..My little precious one's lung functions are about the same as yours,,,and she just turned 8yrs old... This helps me learn alot that the CF clinic needs to be more aggresive for her or something!!

I don't know ,really what the answers are.....Looking at you on video,,,, has made me happy for you and sad for her...But ,that's not your fault,,that I'm sad,,,or should maybe use the word 'scared'! She's so tiny,,, and has been having alot of infections the pass few months...

Please keep us informed and I am wishing and praying for you,,,Karla <img src="i/expressions/rose.gif" border="0">



PS,,, the picture below is Makailyn's helper,,Rocky,,he's taking her socks off <img src="i/expressions/dog.gif" border="0">

MaksNana- I wouldn't be worried about your little girl based on my lung function. Soon, I will put as much of my PFT history up on my blog as I can and I know that when I was younger my numbers were lower but then got better in junior high and high school. PFT's aren't an exact science and there is many things that factor into those numbers. A truer test is how you are feeling and the ability to lead a happy life. Be encouraged by me in that we do have some control over CF. Make sure she is active and faithful with her treatments and she will be in the best position to succeed, as I was. You can contact me directly through my blog if you have any other questions!

hbollotte- I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you video taped your appointments. It's all about spreading awareness right? I'm going to try and do a video blog every day while in the hospital. Hopefully you can stop by my blog and check it out.
