    Pregnant w/CF and Terminating

    I have never been in the situation of knowing my child had cf while I was pregnant. I didn't find out till my kids were a little older, but had I known that they had cf, I still would have kept them. I don't believe in abortion at all, I believe God put them here for a reason and he has a plan...

    pets?

    We have 3 cats and a dog. The kids don't have any problems with them. I actually think it's helps them, it teaches them how to be responsible and to take care of someone. Just as they have to take care of themselves. I think pets are wonderful, it helps to make a house a home

    Thank you all for your support and kind words, I think I'm going to look into get a new cf team. One that gets back to me a little sooner and values my children and my concerns as a parent.
