Dear CysticFibrosis.com Community,

The northeast is ablaze with what the poet Gerard Manley Hopkins calls “the grandeur of God”. I hope wherever you are, you are enjoying some grandeur of nature.

Several threads on our forums have been about whether to be treated at home or in the hospital. The debate continues about safety, convenience, restfulness, and quality of care.

On March 31, 2011, the HSS in the US has weighed in and you can read my blog to find out how they are calling for patients to partner with doctors, the use of mobile technology, and "place shifting" from expensive hospitals rooms to our homes. See how you have already weighed in and add more comments if you wish.

Thanks Ennio, for the gift of the new Chat feature.

With Education, Support and Hope,
