Emily Update

Emily has been doing really well lately. She eats like a horse (which is what she needs to be doing) and just overall loves food. Thank God it's my CF child who loves food so much. Today we head to her doc to learn how to give a new med.. she'll be doing hypertonic saline treatments for her lungs. We have heard great things about it. Today is also VEST DAY!! CF'ers have to have Chest PT - which until now Jonathan has done just by pounding on her chest/back with his hand. Emily LOVES her treatment time with Daddy too. She has finally gotten big enough though for the Vest. We'll hook her up to the vest and it will shake her really hard to help loosen up anything in her lungs so that she can cough it up. I'm not sure how she'l like it but hopefully she will do Ok. She'll be able to get her treatment while watching TV or whatever. I still have a feeling she'll want Daddy to give a treatment at night too just because it always puts her to sleep.
