    Please help to make the lives of school children with CF easier, not more difficult. Please allow them to be as normal as they possibly can. Their lives are difficult enough already. It is necessary for persons with CF to take enzyme supplements with everything they ingest or their food will not digest properly. It is a harmless supplement that cannot hurt anybody.

    Hopefully by the time my 1-year old daughter with CF is in school, this will be a non-issue.

    Although my school has not forced us to use the nurse's office, this law is imperative to all people with CF. Independence and self compliant behavior will not be learned with such rules in place.

    If this law was in place 10-15 years ago, my son wouldn't have had to 'sneak' his enzymes in the bathroom. He would not go to the office and wait in line for his enzymes.

    As the parent of a child with cf, I support David's Law. For persons with cf, taking enzymes with meals is the same as putting your glasses on to read. They should be able to do this themselves during their school lunch. Persons with cf are required to take enzymes with every meal for life...normal routine. Schools should recognize their normal routine. The enzymes are not harmful if accidentally ingested or taken by someone for whom they were not prescribed. They are digestive enzymes. Please pass David's Law.

    As a mother of a child with CF who is about to start Kindergarden next year, I completely agree with the simple and legitiment requests stated in this law.

    What is the problem with this...it is simply just like any other license that we obtain...only thing they will probably require a fee to obtain the license...I have 3 of my 4 children diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis...believe me...this should not even be an issue to have to mess with...In order to eat a meal...we take enzymes...not gonna go ask permission to do so...this is such a no brainer!

    Pancreatic Enzymes are not "drugs; but are nutritionals; they should be adminstered by the person with CF to not miss any classes.

    I agree wholeheartedly as my child lost a lot of lunch period time due to wasted time in the nurses office to take pills, he knew how to take himself. It also has a social effect on cf children as they have to come late to lunch, due to having to go to the nurses office. Meanwhile,all the other children are already seated, socializing and halfway through with their lunch by then.
