Cystic Fibrosis test was NEGATIVE!!

Great news...the CF test results were negative! Madison was a real trooper for the test. After having sweat inducers on her arms for 5 minutes, they placed sweat collector bands on her forearms, wrapped them in gauze, bundled her in warm clothes and cocooned her in a blanket in a warm room for 30 minutes. She fought it at first, but them calmed down and let Willie hold her. (Too bad he wasn't taking the sweat test - he was sweating just a much as Madison!) At this point, it seems like Madison just has bad luck getting sick. I keep hoping that she will grow out of this stage and/or the warmer weather will help...guess we'll have to wait and see.

Madison is still finishing up the antibiotic from the pneumonia. Her coughing at night was horrible last weekend, but seems to be getting better each day.

My Mom and Emily are coming to visit this weekend. Willie's Dad and Andrea are coming next weekend. The lake is open again at no wake. The fishing guys are going to go out and clean up debris tomorrow morning with the hope that the no wake will be lifted for fishing Sunday morning. Apparently it's not much fun to fish when you have to drive so slow from spot to spot!!
