Yes Bridget CF is a horrible disease. 30 years ago, our friends son died of it at age 16. They are still very much involved in CF (fund raising etc) and tell us of the great progress that has been made.

Tell your daughter that the best cure for hang over is the "hair of the dog". (that's my excuse)

My best wishes

Hi Bridget

I can understand how your mum feels. It's bad enough watching a loved partner ging through this horrible illness, never mind watching your child.

I hope all goes well tomorrow and I will be thinking of you and you will be in my prayers. Do let me know how thing go.
