A Day In The Life Of Those Living With Cystic Fibrosis
Although more and more patients with cystic fibrosis are living healthier and happier lives, they work very hard to keep it that way. Joshua and Lukas both are required to do two breathing treatments and physical therapy twice a day when they are well...and even more often when they are sick! Each session lasts up to an hour at times which means early mornings and late evenings which can be extremely difficult when their lives get extra busy. They are learning a lot about time management at an early age! A lot of the work the CF Foundation is doing will also help to make these treatments quicker and easier - and more effective at preventing dangerous infections. Our boys know to never begrudge their treatments as it is because of them they are able to do the things they love. You do what you have to do. This video gives you a great idea of a typical day for the cf patient. We are so grateful to each and every one of our team members that have helped the CF Foundation to keep working on new and improved treatments for our sons. Thank you to everyone on The Garberg Force! We truly love you!
