Rosemary, I know how you feel. We found out this week that is still positive with psueodomonas it has now been 13 months that she has cultured positive. They are now talking about putting a catheder in her nose so we can get the Tobi in the area that they believe is infected. I don't even want to tell about it yet until I know for sure that this is what they are going to do. Her doctor wants to talk to her ENT about it first before we do this. Have you ever heard of this being done to a child before? He said they had done this to an adult for polyps but not a child. I am kind of scared to see her go through this. Because it can easily be pulled out and that means they would have to surgically put it back in. I HATE TO THINK OF HER GOING THROUGH THIS!!!! But we have tried everything and nothing is getting to the source. I will found out more this week what they are going to do. It is so hard watching are kids fight this horrible disease.
