is back!

November 9, 2002

Hello all of you,

Most of you don't know me, but I participated in some of the exchanges

with this group a couple of months ago. Since May, I was less available to

participate because was hospitalized 3 times for several weeks (total

of 10 weeks). Since a couple of weeks, I'm back in reading the e-mails (I'm

more a reader than a writer...) This group helps me alot in some ways that

noboby else could help because most of us are parents of wonderful kids with

cf and our reality is similar.

Since I didn't post such a long time, here I'm going to write a little

bit about my reality: I live in Montreal (Canada) and I'm a happy mother of

2 (Tania 11 wocf and 13 wcf). I have a full time job and it's not

always easy to run here and there, all at the same time... As you probably

already noticed, English is not my first langage but I hope I'm

understandable (If not, don't be shy to tell me!!! I want to improve)

is in grade 9 and he's a very mature kid. He is fed up with cf

and has his good and his bad days in dealing with it. He was diagnosed at

almost 2 years old. Since then he'd always take pancreatic enzymes and was

in a very good condition. He had been chubby for several years. He then

started having some problems with his liver (cirrhosis) and with some lungs

infections. In December, will be re-evaluate for a liver transplant

because his blood tests were not very nice over last months. I realize

that's the direction where we're going but I really, really hope his liver

fonctions improve because I don't think I'm ready to go through that now.

Well, I wrote enough (I'm tired: It took me almost an hour to write

thise-mail because I searched in my dictionnary for proper words to use...

That's why I don't post often...). It will be my pleasure to read you.

Bye, bye,
