Re: trying to cope/life as a parent(SANDRA)

[Guest guest]

, Hi I have an 8yr old daughter with cf. I know how you feel. I am a

single mom. I have a big family 3 sisters and my mom I am close to, but they

don't talk about it either. They would rather pretend it wasn't there and

then when she is sick they are like aww poor baby. So it is left up to me to

deal with everything. I do all the caring for her medical and other wise. I

sometimes want to scream also. And no one can possibly know what we go

through and all the scary things that can happen unless they have a child

with cf. Yes my dear heart you are not alone.

Does anyone else feel this way? or is it just me?

, hi mine name is and i have three daughters ages 4,5, and 6. My

6

and 4 yr old have CF. I know how you feel, it is very depressing at times I

have recently been put on medication for stress and musles spasms caused by

stress. I guess i have finally let it get to me. I try to be strong but it

is hard. My husband doesn't like to talk about it, so I hold it all in. I

just want to go to the top of a high mountain and let it all out! Scream to

the top of my lungs and maybe i'd feel better. haha! I am here if you ever

need anyone to talk to, maybe we can help each other.

Does anyone else feel this way? or is it just me?
