Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life shortening, genetic disease affecting approximately 30,000 children and young adults in the US; a gene hinders the body’s ability to breathe easily and to absorb nutrients, significantly shortening life. Currently, there is no cure. Recent amazing progress is 45% of the CF patient population entered school and is now age 18+, no longer dying in infancy.  See also: Fashion with Passion at the Galleria on Feb 12th.  The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is aggressively pursing a cure for CF by efficiently investing in cutting edge, life saving science
