Guest guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 To Michah and Eilish, Happy Birthday!! Becki, I hope you are feeling better soon. Sooo sorry to hear you are going back to the Club and down again. I think you are amazing w/ all you do for others...now take care of yourself Bev, I got my calendar in the mail and hung it up today at work. Thank you! Can tell I've been busy lately because I heard of for the first time today from you guys. My thoughts are with her family and the angel in heaven. I have a question now too.... Last week my Hunter (3wocf) had an ear infection and cold. Nasty cough going around here. Friday Wyatt's school called me to tell me they wanted me to pick him up because he had a bad cough. I was FURIOUS! If he had a fever I'd completely understand but I'm not going to keep him home because he has a cold and is coughing. (For the record my husband did go pick him up and my friend kept him for the day but when Steve got to the school Wyatt was out on the playground running around and having fun-no fever) I told the secretary that he has CF and coughing is a part of that and a " cold " for a normal child would cause Wyatt's cough to increase 100x's. I asked her to just tell the teacher what I've told her and to allow him to excuse himself to the bathroom to work through the coughing spell. He had already had pulmozyme and the Vest in the A.M. so no treatments were in order. We gave him the Vest 2 more times the rest of the day. Although I have never needed it, I am really considering doing the 504? plan now. How do you suggest I start the process. Talk w/ his doctor first? Is there a generic type of form to follow? Thanks in advance I know a lot of you have experience w/ this. Christy Mom of Wyatt 7wcf and Hunter 3wocf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
