Thanks for telling me her age. I know it doesn't make her loss less painful; my daughters are in their early 40's and I know I'd miss them and be very sorrow if they passed away, but I'd be happy I had the chance to see them grow up. you and Gwen and she had Melissa had to go through a lot of pain (It's so hardfor parents to see their children suffer and not be able to do anything about it. as she grew up; I don't know much about CF.

I don't know how old or young she was, but I know, as mother, it doesn't matter; I can only imagine the pain you and your wife must feel.
