Thanks all.. I havent heard anything since I heard about the heart murmur and enlarged kidney. Of course, my dad and I are not close so blah. I hear it all from my mom. While I'm out east I may go visit them if its ok, and I'll try to take pictures
Liza said:congrats, pinky!
i also have a half brother who will be a year old this may, and my dad is living in maryland. i hope the relations between you and your dad improve, too. I sent my dad a small baby rocking seat, and it touched him. maybe if you got the baby a little gift or something?
Pomeranian said:Not unless if one or both parents are carrier of the CF. If they are not carrier then it will not affect the baby. If they do then it will affect the baby.
See my sister and her husband are the carrier of CF but they dont have CF themselves. But they have a son who do have CF. I know it sad.
The only way to see if the child is affect is to have a blood work done. That should go for the parents too to see if they are the carrier.
Oddball said:Congrats, Pinkster for having a neat half brother!! Why not you go and kidnap your brother?
pinkster said:lol :P I am going out east, close to where they are.. I wanted to surprise my dad but seems i have to let him know, cause I dont know how to get there. Meh.. lol
pinkster said:to my Dad! His girlfriend gave birth to a healthy baby boy this morning at 2:19am weighing 7lbs 14 oz.
I know most of you don't know my dad but still it's kinda cool. I have a half brother now! The name is undecided, i'll post it when they decide
Edit: They also had the baby early, the mom is sick with Cystic Fibrosis, so they induced the baby a month early. I just thought I'd add that.
