Cystic fibrosis is a progressive, genetic disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs.
Tremendous advancements in specialized CF care have added years and improve the quality of the lives of people with cystic fibrosis. During the 1950s, a child with CF rarely lived long enough to attend elementary school. Today, many people with CF are achieving their dreams of attending college, pursuing careers, getting married, and having kids.
Although there has been significant progress in treating this disease, there is still no cure and too many lives are cut far too short.
Our team is determined to ensure that Josh and every person with CF can live a long, healthy life, without the limitations caused by their disease. We can’t wait for you to join us.
