Hi
Not sure if im in the right section but last night i got told my little boy whose nearly 3 weeks old has cystic fibrosis as both my partner and I are carriers..
were absolutely devastated as neither of us had any knowledge of it in our families..
right now im feeling tons of emotions from guilt to sadness..
I feel like my whole world has come crashing down on me, and my beautiful little boy seemed so healthy and i was just starting to settle into parenthood and now all i can think about is how he's going to be on tablets for the rest of his life..how he probably wont be able to have children and how he probably wont live as long as he should..im absolutely gutted and deep down depressed..
I dont want to sound selfish and self absorbed as i know theyre could be so many worse things wrong i just really am so sad and in disbelief that this came out of the blue..and my whole outlook on being a mum, and his life and my dreams i had for him have dissapeared..
Im really just wondering if anyone else has any experience of cystic fibrosis?
Id love to hear anything positive x
