Confessions Of A CF Husband

"Tricia has Cystic Fibrosis (CF), a terminal, genetically inherited disease that especially affects the lungs. Tricia has already lived beyond her life expectancy, and she is now in need of a double lung transplant to continue her life here on earth.

In July of 2007, Tricia went through the week long evaluation process to determine if she was a candidate for a transplant. She was a candidate, and we began making plans to temporarily move to Durham, NC to be close to Duke University Medical Center.

The day before Tricia was to begin the physical therapy that would prepare her to be placed on the transplant list, we found out that we were unexpectedly pregnant. Against the advice of many of her doctors, we chose to keep the pregnancy, having been told that both Tricia and the baby had less than a 50% chance of surviving."

This blog, written by Tricia's husband tells of the struggle this family has with cystic fibrosis and their courageous stand against the Culture of Death. Doctors advised abortion, but the Lawrensons had a beter idea: Trust God. The blog is long but a very touching example of sacrificial love.
