Biography

Thomas was born on June 20th 2008, he was in intensive care when born and was not gaining any weight. He was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis which was a great shock to us as no one in our familys has CF & we also have a daughter who is fine.

In September 2008, he was back in hospital as he was suffering with gastric reflux & underwent an operation. He is currently on 4 different types of meds to help control his reflux problem & also antibiotics twice a day & creons to help absorb fats. He also has a nasal pump which helps his breathing, he has that twice a day before his physio.

Thomas is currently doing well, but it is a daily fight to keep him well. We are so proud of him & how strong he has been & are hoping his future will be bright.
