Health Update

We did our 3-month CF clinic visit two weeks ago. Toe has been having an exacerbation (flare up of the bad bacteria in his lungs. Right now it manifests as a cough) so he was put on antibiotics. The doctor also put Toe on a new regimen where we do percussive therapy every day (3-4 times per day when he is sick) and use a bronchial dialator (a puffer like you would use for athsma) 10-15 minutes before. Everyone seems happy with his growth.

Yes, he is eating butter here. CF diet: high fat, high salt.


All I have to say is the kid has long arms and big feet.

We have all had our flu shots and are washing our hands like fiends. Keep your fingers crossed for a healthy winter.
