    picc line/tune up questions

    I remember what my dad used to do when I would go in for tune-ups when I was younger. Just an idea since you said your son hates bloodwork and such. He used to give me a dollar each time I got stuck with a needle, a few more dollars for harder procedures, even when I cried. (Because it's okay...

    Angie, where in Montana? My parents just bought a ranch in Polson, by Flathead Lake. They will retire there in 2 years.

    Tattoo too

    Funny you ask that! I always tape my ears, but my nipples were a different story because my parents didn't know about them. Since my parents were always there when they would prep me for surgery there was never a convenient time for me to do it.

    Awareness bracelets

    My dad ordered some off cff.org and I beleive you get 10 for $2 EACH - so $20 total. The minimum you can buy is 10, so Kim that is why it was saying you owed $20

    whoops

    Hi Roo, The job is with the Orange County Sheriff's Dept. as a dispatcher. Since it's a county job the insurance benefits are outstanding; I'm getting married in May and I will no longer be on my dad's insurance. So I'm crossing my fingers for this job!! We do have University degrees here...

    I think it's only for California residents. Other states may have similar programs, but GHPP is only for Cal.

    Tattoo too

    I had both of my nipples done twice (so, yes, 4 times!) because I never really had feeling there. I had them done but had to take them out when I had sinus surgery, got them done again, then had to take those out when I had sinus surgery again. Both times I had to take them out the holes...

    Anyone have the DF508 and G551D Mutations?

    My initial reaction to your post was this: I'd rather have more severe pancreas problems than the lung problems. Anyone feel free to correct me, but from what I understand it's the lung problems that cause death, not pancreas problems.

    Being adult

    I think it's really pathetic that people can't express their own opinion without everyone else getting all butt hurt about it! *just a side note* I defend Luke and his bragging rights - I'd be damn proud to have 3 degrees and making good money. And nowhere in his post did I see that he was...

    Telling people about Cystic Fibrosis?

    Sorry- I hope I don't start to sound repetative of what everyone else is saying... When I was in high school, I never really told anyone about my illness as well. And for the same reasons that you don't: fear of rejection, fear of their reaction, etc. I had my close group of friends who knew...
