When Life Forces You to Take a Break

  I doubt that were the only family out there who occasionally forgets that we’re dealing with a very serious disease here.  It’s not that CF really ever leaves our minds but we tend to get cruising along with life & all of our commitments & begin to sadly, take our health for granted. ThisRead More

Protecting Your Lungs Through Renovations

A Healthy Bathroom

If you’re anything like me as a CF parent you have probably taken a critical eye to the areas in your home which might be growing potentially harmful respiratory microorganisms. 14 years ago when we first learned what pseudomonas aeruginosa was and where it was prone to grow I knew that the cleaning schedule aroundRead More

Apologies upfront, I really need to  start this post with a little boast,  I am so pleased with the finished product here!  Sometimes I dive into a project and halfway through I can tell things just are not heading in the direction I  had beautifully dreamt up in my head.

Blessing Bags for the homeless

Last week while we were in the city for my CF checkup, we noticed that each time we go we see more and more homeless people. We always want to help, but we are never sure what to do. There were 3 men standing on a corner, 2 of them were doing tricks and 1Read More

A Brand New Look

It’s been a super busy week in our print shop.  One of the nagging tasks that I’ve been meaning to get to is a complete re-design of our logo & shop appearance on-line.  While I enjoy every minute of the design process involved, it is so difficult for me to commit to a new look.Read More
