    Clear culture - whoopee!

    They swabbed Katy at her doc visit last Monday and they called today to report that her culture was clear of everything! She had cultured PA in early September and is in the middle of a 3 month solid TOBI regimen (among other things, as you know). Although my husband and I are very happy, I...

    Hill-Rom Vest

    Yes, the 104 is the newest Hill-Rom. We had it on a trial period and then a friend of a friend connected us with a used Hill-Rom 103. The 104 was much sexier than the 103. The 103 looks like some old, clunky piece of medical equipment and the 104 was sleek and small and much more portable...

    The generation that survives...

    Kiel, your optimism is catching. When I get really low, I snap myself out of it by thinking about the research and treatment advancements on the horizon. The words "fortunate" actually come out of my mouth. Fortunate that my daughter is still so young, fortunate that she has a fabulous doc...
