To Be Normal
After approximately one bazillion calls to her office, Mike and I finally got a hold of Dr. Lung. She had Maddie’s Cystic Fibrosis Sweat Test results in her evil little hand. If you remember, anything under 30 is considered Normal, 30-60 is Borderline, and above 60 is Abnormal. Maddie’s test came back at a 10. Normal. In fact, Dr. Lung even conceded, “I do not think she has Cystic Fibrosis.” No shit, Sherlock!
Rejoice!
Aunt Becky says:

Short and Sweet says:
Amen! I’ve been checking your blog most of the day to see the results. A 10 sounds damn good to me.

Oh thank God, that is really fantastic news. My cousin Teresa died of CF when she was 19, it is such a horrible, awful disease. I was literally having anxiety stomach-flips whenever I thought of you guys having to face that, and I don’t even know you in real life. I am so unbelievably relieved that Maddie got the all-clear.
(Btw, my other cousin wrote a tribute to Teresa here after she passed away. I still can’t read it without crying.)
Nanette says:
ROCK ON! Yay!!!

I’m doing the stalker bit tonight instead of sleeping. Reading lots of your posts in different places. It is taking me on quite a journey, as I click from one link to another to another site to another.
Not all written by you but all on the same theme: trust your instincts as a parent.
Love ya, babe.
Dana says:
I’m so happy for you three!

Awwww. I’m so glad you don’t have cystic fibrosis to worry about! I’m a new reader and didn’t know that was even a concern. Best wishes to the whole family — time to celebrate!
Bec says:
It’s great that she finally realized what you’ve been saying all this time!
