"Chow-Boy"

It's official. Seth is the first and only "Chow-Boy" in our entire family. :) He had a really great time riding his first horse. Too bad they don't make seat belts for these things to help ease mommy's mind!! LOL




Riding like a pro!

Hey there little partner!

"Chow-boy" Seth

What a big boy!! He even got in a little trotting action!

12/2/2007 For the Elizabeth City parade we included a float for CF. Our float was just to increase awareness for the disease. We decorated a trailor, made flyers and handed out candy. It was a great day......Seth was a very good boy sitting in the float and waving at all of the spectators. Check out our pictures and see what a great float we made

Disney World

9/11/2007 We just returned from DisneyWorld!!! What a fabulous trip that was. Seth was a perfect angel!! It was a great trip from beginning to end without any complaints. We went to all of the parks at least once and spent the entire day, every day, at the park. Check out our photos so you can see for yourself just how much fun we had.

1/4/2008 Seth went to clinic today. He got basically good results today. He has been doing so good lately. He was recently put on an appetite increaser but haven't really gained any weight. The doctor is now considering a feeding tube within the next six months if he doesnt't gain considerable amount of weight. So please keep him in your prayers.

Ready for my big Trip

I am preparing for my biggest trip ever. My grandparents are taking me on an airplane ride to Florida to see Mickey Mouse. I get back on September 11th, just in time for our big walk in the Outer Banks. I am talking about it alot and am counting down the days. I will write again when I get back to let you know how much fun I had. I feel good right now.....pray that it will last!!

I got sick again in this July. I didn't want to play but laid around too much, my cough came back, I was feeling faint in the heat and finally I lost my voice. My mommy and doctor agreed to put me back in the hospital again. Me and my family spent the 4th of July in CHKD and watched the fireworks out of my hospital room window along with lots of other children. I thought the fireworks were great and didn't want them to end. I had to get another mid line for this hospital stay. They didn't medicate me as well this time as they did the first time, so it was very painful to me. I cried the entire 30 minutes it takes to insert the tube. I was really glad to see my mommy again after that. I didn't want her to leave my sight for the rest of my visit. They sent us home after about five days with the IV. We are starting to get used to how this works but it is always hard at first. After my 14 days of IV antibiotics I was really feeling better. My doctor and my mommy knew exactly what I needed to feel better.

I'M STILL GROWING:)

JUNE 8TH I WENT BACK TO CHKD FOR YET ANOTHER CHECKUP. IT WENT PRETTY WELL, I GAINED A POUND!! BUT THE DOCTORS ARE STILL WORRIED ABOUT MY WEIGHT SAYING THAT I AM ONLY IN THE BOTTOM 25 PERCENT OF THE SCALE. BUT WE ARE NOT GOING TO WORRY TOO MUCH ABOUT THAT, I AM STILL GAINING SOME WEIGHT AND WE WILL TRY HARDER TO GAIN SOME MORE:) I DID STILL HAVE THE PSUNOMONIS GROWING IN MY LUNGS SO I WILL HAVE TO STAY ON THE TOBI (INHALED ANTIBIOTIC) FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. I REALLY DONT LIKE THAT ONE BECAUSE IT TAKES 20 MINUTES FOR IT TO GO THROUGH MY NEBULIZER!!! BUT ALL AND ALL I AM DOING PRETTY GOOD AND I HAVE MORE ENERGY THEN I KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR POSITIVE THOUGHTS AND WISHES AND PLEASE KEEP ME IN YOUR PRAYERS. LOVE, BABY SETH (AND MOMMY)
