Ayla's CF Test Results

I just got the call that we have been anxiously waiting for...

Ayla's CF newborn screening test came back...

NORMAL!!!!!!!!

YEA!!!! WE ARE SO EXCITED!!!

Our pediatrician called and said that it came back normal and that she is NOT EVEN A CARRIER!! Isn't that GREAT???

You know...it's funny...I almost didn't believe her! I kept repeating, "Are you serious?" and "She's not even a carrier?" Last night, I sat in the rocker with her and just started crying, b/c I had just changed her diaper and I thought that maybe it was a little bit greasy (a sign of CF). And yesterday I even gave her 1/2 a Creon 5 just in case. (I was going to post the pics today, she did such a great job taking them.) I was almost convinced that she had CF. I even made sure I gave her 1/2 a Creon 5 enzyme this morning before I fed her! But, I guess it was just my paranoia.

You have no idea how relieved I am. I feel like I can breathe again. After 9 long months....I can finally breathe again.

Although... the doctor did say that she has one abnormal chromosome. I was too excited to ask too many questions, plus I couldn't hold back the tears:) The tears of joy...the tears I was praying so long for.

So, does anybody know what this abnormal chromosome might mean???? Please let me know.

PS. Thank you everyone for all your prayers that Ayla would not have CF. I'm so thankful for each and every one of you. See......the Lord does answer prayers =)

I have to go celebrate now:) YEA!!!!!!
