    stay at home or work?

    Not a stay at home Mom - never have been. Ashley was diagnosed at 6 months and I considered getting out of the Navy but knew that I needed the Medical benefits for her so I stayed.

    Whether to get a feeding tube or not?

    Ashley hated cold stuff and too slippery stuff (yogurt and ice cream) that's why she did milkshakes - less cold because it was mainly boost but thick so she didn't get the slimey feel on her tongue. We got the Scandi stuff from our CF nurse. Not sure if it is covered or not.

    Parents Perspective

    Whether to get a feeding tube or not?

    We now have a feeding tube but waited until now when the doctors said it was not an option but a need. When Ashley was a wee one I pretty much let her eat whatever I could get into her - lots of cheese sticks and slipping boost and ensure into milkshakes that she would drink because of her...

    Bronchiectasis

    My non-CFer has it - ABPA as well. Ashley my CFer has it too but they they seem to describe it more as a symptom or something that goes along with the CF... not a lot of attention to it.
