I've been learning to live without you now, but I miss you sometimes

Today marks one year since I lost my dear friend Kyle to CF. It was one of those moments after which nothing could be the same. I think I've mentioned how he was the first person in my life to pass on who I felt I got close to, as well as the first CF death that had a deep effect on me. Since Nov 10, 2008, I've lost more and more friends to CF, and seen families that are broken forever because of this awful disease. I've also seen what can happen when hard times seem to crush hopes and dreams of a future with cystic fibrosis... the mentality of 'we get can through anything, as long as we support eachother and fight together' has shone through. I know our angels would be proud of how we're handling their loss.

Nothing much to report for me personally. I'm coasting and feeling a bit better than I did after making the decision to have a night out last week. Clinic was a huge disappointment, with results that are lower than those from before my hospital admission. I'm not letting it get me down so far. It's the least I can do to honour my friend today.
