Very good post! It's so funny to read how similar we all are... A friend of mine e-mailed me a while back a list she had found called "you might have CF when..."
I know it's a little different than being a parent of a CF'er but I found it very entertaining and it is kind of on topic so I thought I'd share:


You might have Cystic Fibrosis when :

1 : Your biggest room is where you store your medicine's in .

2 : Instead of buying a new car your dad buys the therapy vest.

3 : You eat more pills than food.

4 : You smoke more (nebs) than the malbourough cowboy and your doctor prescribe it .

5 : Your neighbor ask you to bring that seal your hiding to a vet.

6 : You use more toilet paper than kleenex can produce.

7 : In the last year you used 150 meter IV tubing.

8 : The pharmacist rolls out the banner even if you walk by and calls you "my little gold mine" while your name is Hank.

9 : Your insurance goes belly up from your bills .

10 : Your food comes in with a pick up truck.

11 : Your family members keep tripping on your neb hose.

12 : The nurses are your baby sitters since age 1

13 : Even your cat knows where your enzyme's are.

14 : You know how to operate your iv pump better then the nurse , as a matter of fact YOU instruct the new nurses how to use it.

15 : You call the head pharmacy of the hospital and have a discussion about the chemical components of tobramycin.


16 : You are allowed to perform small surgerys , and your just 8 years old.

17 : The room in the hospital has your own wallpaper in it.

18 : The doctor considers you part of the inventory.

19 : You made a 6 feet piece of art from antibiotic caps.

20 : The hallway to your room is covered with your own design carpet.

You are a walking pharmacy~

You have your very own collection of medical equipment - enough to make ANY hospital jealous~

You can recall, mix, administer and give side effects for so many meds you are considering a career change - and besides you would definitely find your NEW job as a Pharmacist has its benefits.

You have an endless supply of "happy places" to remind your kid of when they are getting poked or prodded for the thousandth time.


I am NOT a parent but I think these are true for my mom and myself at times.

Take Care,
Lindsey

These are great, keep em coming cause we all need a little humour when it comes to dealing with the daily realities of CF. I especially relate with the poop question one.
