I took this picture this morning in our living room.  At first glance you may think that it’s time for our family to evacuate.  Is the chimney clogged?  Is there something smoldering in the attic…some hot wires maybe?  Did I perhaps leave a tortilla on the stove for too long?  No…no…and no.  What you are seeing is our living room during Julia’s TOBI nebulizer treatment.  You can see her little foot on the right.  This happens to be a morning treatment.  The sun is streaming through a living room window causing Julia’s inhaled antibiotic to become very visible.  Wow, not only is Julia getting a huge dose of this medicine, but I’m pretty sure anyone in the room is getting a dose of their very own.

So, I have a question for those experienced TOBI users or TOBI givers.  What effects does breathing second-hand TOBI have on non-CFers?  The reason I ask this is because I have had sinus problems ever since Julia started using TOBI.  It could be a strange coincidence because we moved into an older home around the same time, so it could also be that I’m being aggravated by something else in my environment.  I thought I’d throw it out there to see if anyone else has had any issues.

Signing off for now as this week’s Halloween festivities have simply worn this lady out.
