Our daughter cultured Pseudo again almost 4 weeks ago and she has been on Cipro for 3 weeks this Saturday. Anyways, my brother text me two weeks ago to say how 'sorry' he was and that he'd phone me. Three weeks have also passed and he still hasn't phoned me cos he's so 'busy'. He sent me a...

My little girl is 3 and a half year old and for the last week has had a cough. We've put her on her back up antibiotic - she's been on it now for four days and her cough is still there. I know it's early days, and she's got another ten days to take her med, but I am really worrying! The cough...

My in-laws smoke in the house. That's fine, it's their house. It really p*sses me off though when I caught our daughter's grandad smoking in the kitchen when we were visiting. I felt awkward but said to my mother-in-law that I appreciated that it was their house, but I didn't feel happy him...

I took my daughter to her check-up at the Clinic this morning. She's been going through a rough patch lately when she has to do her cough swabs, but today she just did it no problem! I was so proud of my little girl. She rocks.<img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0">

My daughter was due a cough swab today, but it didn't go ahead. The Nurse came to the house to do it and my daughter basically just freaked out and got really upset. The Nurse decided to leave it because my daughter was upset. I spoke to the Consultant this morning and suggested that me or my...

I know we have had conversations about this time and time again but I absolutely hate, and I mean HATE smoking! I went out to the pub at lunch time with my colleagues cos it is our last day in work before Christmas and it was full of smoke - disgusting! Anyways, I know we don't have to go into...

I posted about this last week, so some of you may have read my last post. At present I see a Psychologist every couple of months or so. At my last appointment, she told me that she thought I had Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after my daughter being diagnosed with CF. To cut a long story...
