- Hello! I'm Christy Webster (Amondson). I grew up in Centralia, WA then attended Pacific Lutheran University where I met my husband, Randy Webster. We've been married 4 years, the day after our 4th anniversary we welcomed into the world our daughter, Lucia Grace Webster. (Born 8.29.08, 7lbs 3.8oz, 20 1/4 inches, lots of hair!) Little Lucy instantly became our everything. She's extra special, we found out when she was 6 days old that she has Cystic Fibrosis (CF).CF mainly affects two parts of your body, the lungs and the digestive system. It involves a buildup of thick sticky mucus in both areas. She's at a high risk of respiratory infection, so we make sure visitors aren’t sick & do not take Lucy into public places for a while. In the digestive system, it causes malabsorption where the body doesn't absorb the nutrients in food & the kids are often small and underweight. We are giving her pancreatic enzymes to help her body absorb the nutrients in the milk she drinks - so far, it's working well. She is gaining weight nicely & getting cuter by the minute. If you'd like more info on CF, the best resource is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation - www.cff.org
