I too, was under the impression that living past their 30s was still fairly uncommon among those with CF.

I don't want to sound mean, but really, is it fair to bring a child into a family knowing full well that his/her mother will be dead before reaching adulthood? It is one thing when tragedy strikes from no where, but to deliberately subject a child to such a loss...I really have an ethical problem with that. I realize it's terribly unfair to tell someone they cannot be a parent, but, sadly, life is unfair.
