I just got done watching it. The most difficult documentary I have ever had to watch, a few times I thought I was going to need to turn it off. Its does have a happy ending, but it did tell the TRUTH about CF! Hopefully it will help funding the pipeline for research dollars and for the Organ Donors!!! When people aren't organ donors, two people die instead of one.

Well done docu. I wish I could sit down all my loved ones and watch it with them-I think they'd understand what Cf is much better.I really related to the end when Kirstie says she spent so much time trying to convince people around her that she really was sick-she forgot how sick she actually was.
I saw a great deal of myself in Kirstie. Hubby watched it with me. It was hard to get through at times, but very balanced and well done. For me the most emotional parts were seeing how devoted her fiance was, and seeing just how passionate he was for her. It reminded me of what my own hubby has gone through. (not to that extent of course)
She looked amazing post-transplant! I'm so happy for them and wish them all the best.

I just couldn't watch it. Caitlin (drdanika) recorded it and tried to watch it the next morning but once I heard the coughing and saw the hospital room I made her turn it off. I watched 65 red roses and it was just too much. I still have images of her lung transplant stuck in my head and how clogged with mucus her lungs were when they removed them. I know its a reality I'll have to one day deal with but I just try to push it to the back of my mind.
