Serving as youth ambassador is Reilly<br />
Gardner, age 4, who was diagnosed with<br />
cystic fibrosis (CF) as a newborn. CF is a<br />
complex, genetic disease that impacts the<br />
lungs and digestive system and progressively<br />
limits the ability to breathe. While<br />
life expectancy has greatly improved<br />
from the 1950’s and age five to a current<br />
median survival age of 41, much needs<br />
to be done to improve the lives of people<br />
with CF until there is a cure through the<br />
support of research, drug development<br />
and specialized care.<br />
