CF is one of the cruelest conditions I could imagine - a kidwho knows the chances of making it much into their 20s are slim, the constant treatment and pain. Awful stuff.

My buddy tells me you haven't lived thru human suffering till you've "drained" your dying CF child of all that mucous hour after hour.

Man it breaks my heart to recall what they all went thru. The Mom still cannot talk about it 10 years later with out breaking down. My friend...he is pretty bitter about it.

He's a good fellow...one of my closest business pals but he's a little odd about the two babies I now have...I know it makes him uneasy and I completely understand.
