    MRSA

    I may be wrong... but I think you're (the last poster) talking about the skin type of MRSA, not the kind that affects CFers in the lungs.

    CF AND DAMAGED KIDNEYS (scared)

    He's actually the director of the CF Foundation Connecticut chapter. Name is Paul Drury. Last I heard, he was doing wonderfully. His brother Carl was a living donor for him, and gave up one of his kidneys.

    Ports and intimacy

    Whatever works for you, Mary. But if you get the port placed in a specific spot, it could be hidden.
