Seriously?

Nothing like being asked by your nurse, "So Cystic Fibrosis, were you born with that?" to inspire confidence. Especially when shortly afterwards I had to explain my antibiotic infusion schedule and tell her how to run them.

(I'd tolerate it better if there hadn't already been similar educate-the-staff moments with at least 3 other nurses. I shudder to think what my care would be like if I wasn't functional, knowledgeable, and coherent.)
