Hi. I'm 63 (64 in Dec.), diagnosed at age 47. I'm the first person diagnosed with CF with the 5T variant. A paper was published in a medical journal about me and my case was presented at the NACFC way back when. I retired 11 years ago due to needing IV antibiotics about every 12 weeks. Since retirement, I'm doing great!

My husband was diagonsis at 18 months and he will be 39 in February. Currently his PFT's are holding at 40% and his weight is 130 pounds. The last few years have been more of a struggle for him but he is a fighter. He was able to get SSDI about 7 years ago and he has not worked since. He would not be able to hold down a full time job, however I do work in the medical field. Each day is a blessing for the both of us. He is my soulmate!1!
