We have just been filmed by Sophie Raworth with Amelia at home to discuss what CF is like on a day to day basis. We hope we've told it as it is, and an honest picture of CF

Hello again, just watched it.
You did a fantastic job!! You went through such a traumatic start to Amelias life and just look at her now.
She looks fab.
I loved it when she threw the christmas cracker

Thanks for being brave enough to do it.

Take care, Nikki ( mum to Holly wcf aged 2)

I know how you feel - but only on a regional level! I've just done BBC Radio Suffolk, and Holly and I are due to be on Anglia TV tonight.

For those that want to watch it, you can go here.

http://search.bbc.co.uk/cgi-bin/search/results.pl?q=cystic+fibrosis&uri=%2F&go.x=52&go.y=18

It's on the right hand side, 'living with cystic fibrosis' and there is a picture of Amelia.

Take care and well done for doing the piece Amelia's mum,

Anders

p.s. I wish i could meet Sophie Raworth

Saw it on BBC1 earlier, well done. Didn't realise it was parents off the forum at the time so its nice to come on here and 'know' who it was Your daughter is a cutie.

Frizzymum - what region of anglia tv will you be on? Easter or western, do you know? I watched last week to see Becky and her 2 wcf but they where on the eastern region and we only get western here. (didn't know there was a difference until I didn't see her but others did, was wondering how I'd managed to miss them!!!!). Maybe you'll be on both what with it being a big story due to the Browns diagnosis? Will probably watch it just incase but wondered if you knew?

Well done for so many of you getting on TV and radio, no one has contacted us but don't think I'm brave enough anyway so maybe thats a good thing

just amazing to see the amount of coverage today. Great articles in the Mail too. Its only one day, but im sure its made a huge impact on people in raising awareness and hopefully funding.
