Jessica Rachele was born the most beautiful baby in the world, March 9, 1990. After a rough start the first few days, things seemed fine for next 3 weeks. At that time my little Jesicakes was failing to thrive. By the time she was 2 months old she was barely 8 1/2 lbs. She was 7 3/4 at birth. At this time the doctors did a number of test and to our bewilderment she was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. An inhereited disease effecting mainly the LUNGS, PANCREAS, and SINUSES. This disease can be devastating . The thick mucus that CF causes the person to have make it hard to ward off lung and sinus infections and make it hard to gain and keep weight on. |
