Sending an early Happy Holiday Greeting...as Yahoo seems to be not as efficient as the USPS!

Dear All,

Wishing you all a fun, fattening, and peaceful sleep on the couch after a

Monsterously HUGE Meal!

While the guys sleep, I wish you all a HEALTHY Holiday Season (with fingers and

toes crossed) for good health... and HOPEFULLY a cure in 2003!!!

My absolute appreciation to all on this list (Parents, kids, grandkids, Uncles,

Aunts and friends and persons worldwide with CF).

You have all opened my eyes. Tonight, I accept that CF is not a

" death-sentence " .... it's a " life-sentence " . When, as a parent of a child with

CF, you accept what the disease is, you find that you marvel in the growth and

development of your child and appreciate it (I think) so much more than the

parent of the average kid.. AND THAT IS LIFE, not death!

I feel almost at peace tonight, for the first time in nearly 20 months.

Love,

Paige (Mum to Jack, 20 months old with CF)

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!
