Hi, I wasn't really sure what category to put this under, and I also put this under Illnesses!
Well, first of all I have a really good friend that I've known since 1st grade! It is currently my senior year. We've continued to be best friends over the years, and we are talking about going to college together. Well my friend has cystic fibrosis. I've known this since as long as I can remember, but I've never actually taken the time to look into it. My friend seems to be really healthy, and you would never be able to tell she has this disease by looking at her. She stays really active (she plays volleyball and she is a cheerleader) and has dreams of becoming a singer. She has even started working on devoloping a record! :) I'm so proud of her strength and her drive. But I guess what I'm trying to get at is how will CF effect her future? I also heard that people with CF generally die at fairly young ages... this is something that really scares me. If anyone has any additional information I would REALLY appreciate it!
